Rebuild Woonsocket Community Movement We're building a community-powered movement, transforming Woonsocket, and fighting for the needs of our working-class neighbors

Thomas’s story is so very Woonsocket. Born and raised here in a close-knit, working class family with generations in the city; a graduate of our public school system; now a home-owner in Fairmount; and a good-government activist who serves his community as part of Rebuild. He made this video in support of our work, to remind us that because of community organizing “things have gotten better, but the progress made is always at threat of being lost if the work stops."

So let’s keep the work going! We have just 5 days left in our match campaign, and we still need to raise $1849 by Tuesday if we want to unlock the full $3000 investment in Woonsocket’s progressive movement. Will you donate to double your impact today?

What could we do with $6,000?

A generous donor is matching every donation we receive now through midnight on October 6th, up to $3,000! That means together, we could turn $3,000 into a $6,000 investment in our movement. $25 helps print flyers to connect residents with our movement. $50 helps pay a neighbor to learn about issues impacting our city. $100 helps feed 20 neighbors at a community event!

But your contribution does more than that. It builds collective power: power to speak up and to challenge policy decisions. Power to imagine something better and organize to make it happen! Whether you can give $5, $50, or $500, your contribution will build a stronger grassroots movement in Woonsocket.

This Labor Day, we could all use a simple reminder: Our movement is about working-class people, and “working-class people know how to get work done. We work as a team.” I got to sit down with my friends Jeannine and Jim, a couple with an incredible story of climate, housing, and labor activism. We talked about Rebuild Woonsocket Community Movement, their favorite moments throughout the years, and the vision they see for Woonsocket’s future at this historic moment.
Our work over the years would not have happened without supporters like Jeannine and Jim, and I’m proud that our work together has earned their trust in our organization. If you want to invest in our movement too, there is a big opportunity in the week ahead. Look out for an announcement on Monday! I can’t wait to share more.

Healthcare is a human right. That’s why we're excited to team up with Primary Care for All Americans, a national organization that was started right here in Rhode Island, to advocate in Woonsocket for the expansion of primary care access in our community.

Our first meeting is Tuesday, September 15th at 6pm over Google Meets. Interested? Fill out this form: https://rebuildwoonmovement.org/PC4AA

Flock cameras increase government surveillance and expand unregulated corporate power. The situation is so bad that the State of RI has issued a pause on the installation of new Flock cameras, and our neighbors across RI and MA have begun to ditch these questionably-legal surveillance devices altogether. For the sake of our safety and right to privacy, it's time Woonsocket follow suit!

That's why we're calling on the Woonsocket City Council to end our city's relationship with the Flock corporation, and remove these dangerous cameras from our streets. Please sign this petition to join our call!

The Lunches in the Park program has finished for this year, and it was a huge success thanks to everyone who donated and volunteered. Because of our community, we were able to make and distribute nearly 300 lunches to Woonsocket families in the last few weeks! Congressman Gabe Amo even came by to check out the program, and thank The Milagros Project, Rebuild Woonsocket Community Movement, and Engage North Smithfield! for what we were doing. It was great to chat with him and his team about the work in Woonsocket, and about how our community shows up every single time.

We are so grateful for everyone who donated, volunteered, and supported in other ways. We are the movement!

We're so excited about this partnership between the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northern Rhode Island and the Nonviolence Institute. Woonsocket's youth (and every resident!) deserve to be wrapped in supportive, beloved community, and for the issues of violence and harm that we face to be addressed at the root. Huge props to everyone whose tireless work over the years has led to this important day (Love you Bonnie!)

As temperatures (and energy bills) soar, it's as important as ever that we get off fossil fuels fast, and in a way that is fair for residents and workers. That's why we've been working with a research team at Brown this Spring to price the just transition - creating public input opportunities that will turn into state policy proposals to decarbonize Rhode Island's buildings.

And we have ONE opportunity left. If you haven't already, join us at our paid Community Climate Conversation in Newport next Tuesday, 7/7 at 6pm, to let your voice be heard!
