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!

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.

Bonfire - St. Johns
Bonfire – St. Johns is an off-line, monthly gathering of women in homes and local gems across our community. We gather to build connection, feel community and grow relationships while providing opportunities to learn and give back together. Our members enjoy meeting up with one another outside of our monthly gatherings deepening their connection in both shared interests and values. We believe these recurring moments together ignite sparks within each of us that lead to the spice of life we all crave. 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! 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.

Your Liberal Mom Friends - Pgh West Hills
We are a brand new (nonpartisan but left leaning) progressive group of activist Robinson residents and Montour parents resisting the fascist regime. Focusing on staying informed in the West Hills and making Good trouble with noncompliance and noncooperation. This group is hyper localized so we can work together to keep an eye on our school boards in Montour, Moon, West A, Sto Rox, Cornell, QV, and surrounding local representatives and local government, keeping far right extremists out of the West Hills. We want you to join even if you're not into politics, it's about providing safety in numbers and building community.
