Birmingham/Bloomfield Families for Social Action
Please join our Facebook page to find upcoming events: www.facebook.com/share/g/1BK9Hap5Ft About What: Birmingham/Bloomfield Families for Social Action is a locally-based group of progressive citizens. We seek to create a centralized platform to build community, increase awareness, and share opportunities for collective action among our members. Who: Residents of Birmingham, Bloomfield, and the surrounding cities are welcome to join. If you live in SE Michigan, we'd love for you to join our group. Why: We seek to combat a news cycle that feels overwhelming and demoralizing by focusing on the everyday acts that we as citizens can take to make a real difference in our communities - local, national, and global. Group members are encouraged to share volunteer opportunities, fundraising drives, and awareness events that reflect our common beliefs as listed below. [Please note: all fundraising drives must support registered non-profits (check here: apps.irs.gov/app/eos). If the organization isn’t listed, please ask admin]. Common Beliefs: In this community, we believe: - All People Are Equal - Diversity Makes Us Stronger - Black Lives Matter - No Human Is Illegal - Science Is Real - Women’s Rights Are Human Rights - Climate Change Is a Crisis - Water Is Life - Love Is Love - Kindness Is Everything - People and Planet Over Profit - We Can Make a Difference “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” (Margaret Mead)

Hope and Cookies: Defending Democracy One Cookie at a Time
We believe that the best way to defend our democracy is with knowledge, and the best way to help is by providing caring people with information. Hope and Cookies hosts house parties where we share information about Project 2025 and other threats to our freedom. We want to give our members the confidence to talk to their friends and neighbors (or even total strangers) in a way that will make a difference. Come for dessert and leave empowered!
