Meet Bree, Rocky’s New Finance Director!

We’re thrilled to welcome Bree to the Rocky team! She brings seven years of nonprofit accounting experience, including five years as the Director of Finance for the Montana Primary Care Association.

A Helena native, Bree was drawn to Rocky’s mission and the wide variety of services we provide to our community and surrounding area.

“I like puzzles. I enjoy digging into the details and spreadsheets and sorting everything into its place. Ultimately strong financial practices ensure the good work can continue.”

Bree is looking forward to expanding her knowledge and getting to know the people and organizations that support Rocky’s mission. She’s already been struck by how welcoming everyone has been and how much they love their work.

Outside of work, Bree and her husband stay busy with their five kids, enjoy traveling and attending concerts, and raise chickens that have become family pets!

Please join us in giving Bree a warm Rocky welcome! 💙💚

“As we age, people have more of a tendency to isolate, which can produce depression and anxiety and loneliness. And the Senior Center really helps to combat that.” — Mary McKitrick, Rocky Senior Center Coordinator

Connection is at the heart of what we do. 💙

We’re grateful to partner with the Holter Museum of Art to bring Holter Healing Arts to our Helena Senior Center, creating another way for seniors to connect, create and try something new.

This partnership is made possible by a Blue Impact grant the Holter received from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana.

A big thank you to the Holter for bringing this meaningful program to Rocky and to KTVH for sharing the story!

Read and watch the full story below.

For many seniors at the Rocky Mountain Development Corporation's Senior Citizen Center in Helena, a new art program is about much more than painting or drawing.
