OUR TEAM OF DIRECTORS

For a Montana Bar Fairies chapter to exist, it needs a director. Our directors take the lead in their communities—organizing donations and coffee cards, connecting with local families to share stories, coordinating volunteers, and capturing moments for social media. They pour their time and hearts into this work, often alongside busy jobs or school. We simply couldn’t do this without them. Meet the incredible people making Bar Fairies possible in each area below. ❤️

  • Suzanna Rosalez | Missoula, MT

    When I started with Montana Bar Fairies in February of 2025, I never could have dreamt that I would make such meaningful connections with so many wonderful people. Hearing people's stories and anecdotes at 5am has easily become some of my favorite memories this past year. Watching Montana Bar Fairies take root and bloom into what it is today has been nothing short of magnificent. Inspiring change in Montana is just the beginning of a nation-wide perspective shift regarding drinking and driving. I vigorously believe in the idea that we must "be the change you wish to see in the world". I feel we all have a responsibility to leave the world a better place than when we found it. This process begins at a community level, one person at a time.

    As someone that used to drink and drive herself, I knew what I was doing was bad. I knew the risk, but it wasn’t enough to stop me because I didn’t care. Knowing there is people that care about you, & applaud when you make the right choices, that’s what opens their eyes. This is a nonjudgmental approach to helping the communities we LOVE, to see that they are individually appreciated, cared for and loved. There are people that will hurt if you don’t make it back home.

    Hey! My name is Patricia and I'm the co-director of Montana Bar Fairies, Bozeman. I'm from the Flathead Valley and currently am studying biochemistry and psychology at Montana State University. On the first day of Fairying in the Flathead Valley, my brother received a gift coffee card thanking him for choosing a safe ride home. Growing up in Montana, I've seen how normalized drinking and driving is, and witnessing its impact on families and communities motivated me to help promote safer choices.
