Bonfire - Charlotte

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. The goal of the Charlotte Bonfire is to create community and joy in Charlotte, North Carolina! We meet on the third Wednesday of every month and look forward to growing our community and joyful connections across this beautiful city. If you are interested in exploring Charlotte, volunteering, participating in a book club, hearing from speakers, and meeting amazing people, please join us! Everyone is welcome!

Supporters of Spotsylvania Public Schools

We are a non-partisan group dedicated to supporting the Spotsylvania Public School students, faculty and staff by helping to elect local school board and board of supervisor candidates that will support them. In 2023, we successfully helped to get three brand new women and one incumbent woman elected to our school board to overturn a majority pushing book bans and other right-wing agendas.

Progressive Buzz

Progressive Buzz is an independent group of Red, Wine and Blue and TroubleNation (an arm of RWB) focused on protecting and saving our democracy by getting sh*t done! We welcome people who are new to politics, longtime activists, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, non-affiliated peeps...you get the idea. Come join us in creating a comfortable safe space where we can form new friendships, learn, commiserate, and share our feelings about what’s happening locally and across the country. Our judgement-free meetings will be in someone’s home or at a fun venue like a wine bar to keep the vibe chill. During our meetings, some of us might drink wine, some of us might not, some of us may curse, some of us may not - all that matters is that you're okay with it either way. In addition to the social and bonding time, we will be getting down to business. We'll incorporate a brief educational component into each meeting with easy, localized calls to action. It might be as simple as calling elected officials, attending a school board meeting, or completing a training. You know us women, we get it done! The group is based out of Brigham City and open to anyone in the state who is willing to make the drive (we'll try to find venues all along the Layton-Logan front)! If you are unsure whether this group is for you, please check out https://redwine.blue/who-we-are/ and https://redwine.blue/our-values/
