Manasota (Manatee + Sarasota)
Bonfire brings people together in real-world spaces, to grow, learn, and spark change — together, in person. We’re building community right in your backyard, with events and gatherings that offer opportunities for personal, professional, and political engagement and fulfillment. 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 Red Wine & Blue’s TroubleNation, Bonfire groups are local communities led by volunteer organizers who want to bring people together where they live. TroubleNation provides the tools, training, and support to help these groups grow and thrive — while keeping community building at the center. Bonfire - Manasota (Manatee Co & Sarasota Co) meets monthly in member's homes, cafes ad other various locations across our community. Our hope is to build connection and community where needed the most, and empower and cultivate full potential in everyone's dreams and goals. We are planning events such as volunteering at food bank, Dance class for emotional health, and study hall with guests who are leaders in the community. Look forward to meet you!

Anchorage Women for Democracy
I've gathered 11 other women friends (all retired) together, we have had 3 meetings--tend to run every 5 weeks or so. We are currently winging the month to month dates--we Alaskans do a lot of traveling in the winter :-). We are focused on voting (as a group) and keeping our ranked choice voting in place. We communicate for rallies and other things of interest--and I think various combinations of folk will do other things. We've enjoyed our conversations, companionship, and speaker engagements. We are still exploring...definitely focused on community...and most of us are already active in a variety of ways. Unsure where this will go! But it felt good to start something.
