About the Dinner & Gayla
Join us as we celebrate 41 years of queer progressive politics and activism in San Francisco. Our annual dinner & gayla gathers more than 300 of San Francisco's most influential LGBTQ politicians, community activists, and grassroots organizers. This is our primary fundraiser to support the club's political agenda each year.
For 2017-2018 our focus includes: resistance against the current regime; police accountability, reform and transparency; fighting for Trans lives; solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement; preserving our Sanctuary city; housing affordability; addressing the homelessness crisis; fighting for economic, social and environmental justice; and working with progressive elected officials to ensure our voices are heard and counted.
This has been one of the most important years in the club's history. That's why we need your support now more than ever. We hope you'll join us!
