Our guest presenter will be Melanie Weiler. Kris Keller and members of her team from Orion Communities in Phoenixville will be joining us for the Bridges conversation on March 27th.
Kris KellerExecutive Director
It came as a surprise to Kris late in her career that she had a real love for non-profit work! She says that it's the people - trusting clients, talented staff, wonderful volunteers and donors, committed board members and creative partners who inspire her to help solve challenges for our neighbors in need. Kris started out in California with an engineering degree and MBA. She feels fortunate to have been asked to help re-imagine Orion for its fifth decade. When you connect with her, ask where in the world her kids are today, her favorite Jersey beach or about recent hiking/biking adventures.
