We meet every other week via Zoom, Below is our mission statement and current goals. Mission Statement--Active and involved matriarchs engaging others to create an equitable future for all.

Red Wing Snowstorm
Snowstorm was founded at a kitchen table after Donald Trump’s election in 2016. The founders wanted to create a safe place (private Facebook group) for the community to share fears, concerns, support and information. In 2021 Snowstorm hosted a Reproductive Rights Rally (150 participants) and in 2023 a public demonstration was held in the park supporting reproductive rights. More organizing events are planned for the 2024 election season.
