We Are Trouble
Have you been trying to figure out how to do more to fight extremism, or you’re looking to be part of a like-minded community of troublemakers? Do you want a place to laugh, complain freely about politics, drink wine (or your favorite beverage of choice), and connect with like-minded people? Then you are in the right place! We Are Trouble will help you find other members in Centre County who share your frustration with the rise of extremism in this community. Yes — they do exist! Even if you feel alone, we guarantee, you are not! And guess what — it will be fun! It's fun to DO something to help create meaningful, lasting change. You don't have to identify as an “activist”, and you don't have to attend formally structured meetings. Join We Are Trouble to become informed, share your experiences in a social setting, and work with others who share your values to protect democracy on the local, state and national level.

Bonfire Massachusetts - Cambridge/Strawberry Hill
This Bonfire is for women who live in Cambridge's Strawberry Hill neighborhood (including Aberdeen & Homer Ave). We are keeping this group hyper-local, bringing us together for monthly in person gatherings in our living rooms, backyards, community center, cafes, etc... The goal of this Bonfire is to create connection and a felt sense of community in our little corner of Cambridge. In addition to monthly gatherings focused on personal, professional, and civic engagement, we also share resources and opportunities like taking care of the bike path, heading out for dancing, collecting food donations, neighborly advice, etc.... If you are looking for connection and joy, seeking inspiration or have some to share, we have a seat by our fire for you. Bonfire was created for women of all ages and backgrounds, but is not exclusive to women. Created in partnership with the Red Wine & Blue Network, Bonfire groups are local communities led by volunteer organizers who want to bring people together where they live. The RWB Network provides the tools, training, and support to help these groups grow and thrive — while keeping community building at the center. As a sober person, the head of the Strawberry Hill Bonfire does not like having the word "wine" involved with the name of this organization, but understands it's origins and why it is being used. Please know our monthly Bonfire gatherings are alcohol free. If you don't live in the Strawberry Hill neighborhood of Cambridge, please click "Contact Organizer" above so the head of the group can talk to you about what it would be like for you to start your own Bonfire. It would be amazing to have more groups in Massachusetts. If you do live in Strawberry Hill, please click above to "Join Group". Don't worry about answering the questions about what you are interested in or whether you campaign or are part of other groups. Instead, please share what street you live on and who referred you to this Bonfire. 🔥🔥🔥

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!
