The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia is pleased to welcome Greta Wrigley as the new community engagement specialist for Bucks County Kehillah.
“I am thrilled to be working for the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia to focus on building and deepening relationships within the Jewish community in Bucks County,” said Wrigley, who lives in Jenkintown. “I have a passion for Judaism, spirituality, learning and community building.”
Prior to joining the Jewish Federation, Wrigley worked for the Kaiserman JCC Gems Program as the Bucks County program manager, where she managed and promoted programs and events, fostered new partnerships with congregations and local organizations, and enhanced member communications.
Wrigley serves on the Board of Directors at Beth Sholom Congregation in Elkins Park. She has also held various leadership roles at Beth Sholom Congregation, including a communications task force member, the strategic planning committee member and yahrzeit outreach volunteer.
Wrigley holds a Bachelor’s in history with a minor in women’s studies from the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
As the community engagement specialist for Bucks County Kehillah, Wrigley will help connect community members within the neighborhood with each other, Jewish programs and resources.
“My goal is to engage individuals and institutions across Bucks County, creating a fluid communication process between the Kehillah and the Jewish Federation to share ideas and feedback and broaden our reach to meet new leaders and supporters,” said Wrigley. “I feel grateful to be working for a meaningful organization where I have the opportunity to grow in my career, to be a part of a strong internal community, and to be involved in meaningful work with my colleagues and constituents.”
