It’s easy to feel overwhelmed right now. To scroll endlessly, to take in so much bad news that it feels like the weight of the world is pressing down. We sit in it. We process. We talk about how broken things are. But what if, instead of sinking into the heaviness, we put our energy into something different?

What if we put down our phones, closed our computers, and came together in real ways—face to face, hand in hand—to create joyful change?

This is the heart of Two for Joy—a grassroots movement built on action, connection, and the belief that small efforts, made together, create lasting change.

A Community That Moves Together

We are shifting our focus away from waiting for solutions and toward being the solution. We are gathering as a community to:

• Recognize the needs right here in Red Lodge—whether it’s food insecurity, healthcare gaps, or simply a neighbor who needs support.

• Find tangible ways to help—not just through donations, but by creating opportunities to raise funds through action and by showing up for each other in everyday moments.

• Replace helplessness with hope—because when we work together, we remember that we are not powerless.

Two for Joy is about stepping out of the noise and stepping into community.

A Call to Action

This is how we rise—not by waiting for change, but by creating it.
This is how we break free from the negativity cycle—not by turning away, but by turning toward one another.

So let’s gather. Let’s build. Let’s bring joy back into action.

If this speaks to you, come alongside us. Let’s do the work, together.

With hope & purpose,
Kat
