Bonfire - Decatur
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 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. Bonfire - Decatur aims to build a fierce community of women gathering around shared values, focusing on personal, professional, and political aspirations. We are creating a safe space for women to own their voices and step into their power together. We will be scheduling regular monthly meetings that include meetups in member's homes, local restaurants and coffee shops, as well as planning regular events outside of our monthly get-togethers, such as museum visits and volunteering opportunities.

We also assist our community through various levels of support - including speaking on behalf of staff at board meetings, assisting parents through the IEP and/or complaint process, amplifying voices of community members and other organizations, etc. We are a small group of 6 women who are parents and/or retired NHCS educators and we are passionate about strengthening and investing into our public schools. We want to connect with other like minded local community members as we expand the work we do.

The Lighthouse Group
It’s okay not to understand everything. It’s okay to have questions. And it’s okay to disagree with your neighbor. We’re a nonpartisan community space focused on education, connection, and honest dialogue about the complicated issues shaping our world. We bring people together to learn, listen, and better understand one another—and, for those who want to go further, connect with neighboring groups and countywide organizers to take meaningful action on issues that matter. We believe our communities are stronger when we know our neighbors — especially the ones who see things differently than we do.
