“I feel stuck.”
“How do I make a difference?”
“How do I find purpose and hold on to joy?”
We’re asked these questions daily by women who are seeking something more in their personal, professional, or political lives.

What is a Bonfire?
Bonfire powered by Red Wine & Blue creates real-world spaces where women gather to grow, learn, and spark change together.
Inspired by Shannon Watts – founder of Moms Demand Action and New York Times bestselling author of Fired Up – Bonfire is a growing grassroots movement, with local groups across the country.
Through a national partnership with Red Wine & Blue, Bonfire groups now have access to expanded organizing infrastructure, leadership training, coaching, and event tools – while maintaining their unique identity and local leadership.
Together, we’re building a powerful network of local communities that turn online energy into real-world action and create inclusive spaces for growth and leadership.
Ready to stop asking “What can I do?” and start doing it alongside amazing women in your community?
Your Bonfire is waiting.
