Special Guest Announced:
BEN COHEN
Ben Cohen MBE is a World Champion Sportsman with a difference. After a 15-year glittering career playing top flight rugby in England, Ben hung up his boots in May 2011 to become Chairman of The Ben Cohen StandUp Foundation in order to fight bullying and homophobia in sports and to make the world a kinder place. His decision to take this step came after a number of young people took their own lives after being bullied because of their sexuality. Ben is the first straight sportsman to champion a cause for the LGBT community and we are honored that he will be joining us at the dinner!

Become a Table Captain
Table Captains are vital to the success of the San Francisco Bay Area Gala Dinner, as they encourage their friends, family and associates to attend the event. Each table seats 10 and Table Captains strive to sell all the seats at their table. In recognition of their effort, Table Captains who sign-up before September 22 will be included in the program book. There is no financial obligation to sell or purchase all 10 seats at the table. If you don't sell your whole table, we'll fill it with other fun and equality-minded HRC guests!
