Board of Directors
Lori got involved in Family Promise because she saw the lasting impact of the staff, volunteers and programs on the families served. When real transformation can be achieved, the community will be better served by the resources invested. When not serving Family Promise and clients, Lori enjoys fine art (both viewing and creating), biking and entertaining friends and family.

Immediate Past President
Kelley first volunteered for FPGV through her church and was immediately impressed with how much the organization supported the guests in ways far beyond simply providing shelter. As she learned more, she volunteered more and eventually joined the Board. “My participation on the Board has been an honor, helping to forward the mission of the organization is a privilege.” Some of her favorite things include skiing, classic rock, and long road trips.

"I believe in the mission of Family Promise and the impact of our organization to the communities we serve. Our organization provides families the tools and support to help them transition out of housing crisis situations. I enjoy working with our leadership team to ensure that our organization can continue to meet the needs of our growing community. When I am not volunteering, I enjoy music, anything outdoor related and enjoying time with my wife and our 2 dogs."

After my time as a Chef, Owner, and Operator of Starky’s Authentic Grill in Bozeman, I joined US Foods as an District Operations Consultant. I am grateful to be part of helping restaurants thrive in their communities. Family Promise came into my world in 2020 and I happily joined the board in July of 2021 to help promote awareness of this critically important organization. I live in Bozeman year round with my husband Glen. Together we have two amazing adult children who are making a difference in their chosen professions. We get out to hike, bike, or ski and enjoy all the beautiful things that Montana offers.
