Please join us on Saturday, October 19th for the 29th Annual HRC San Francisco Bay Area Gala Dinner & Silent Auction held at the Westin St. Francis.

Come together with many of the of the Bay Area's most influential citizens who will gather at this event to celebrate the strides HRC has made toward achieving equality for our community this past year, while preparing for the work ahead.

The Human Rights Campaign cannot operate without funds, and here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we have grown to host one of the largest fundraisers in the country for the cause of equality. The SF Bay Area Gala Dinner is an annual event that consists of a large private auction, followed by a black-tie dinner to celebrate the steps we have made and to look towards a more just future.

Become a Table Captain

Table Captains are our best resource for making the 2013 HRC San Francisco Bay Area Gala Dinner an amazing experience! Table Captains are the heart of the dinner's attendance. Each Table Captain strives to fill a table of 10, creating their own guest list and spending an inspirational evening surrounded with friends and family. If you'd like to select the nine people who will sit at your table, just become a Table Captain. And Table Captains are not financially obligated to fill the table. As a "thank you" for helping to support the drive for equality, Table Captains are listed in Dinner advertisements, invitations and program books. If you're interested in becoming a Table Captain, check out the information on the HRC Gala website.
