A well-loved tradition in San Francisco, this year’s luncheon will focus on the theme of closing the gender pay gap. For more on our Close the Gap campaign and pay discrimination, click here.

Through generous donations from Wells Fargo, Hanson Bridgett, Farella Braun + Martel, the Kazan McClain Satterley Lyons Greenwood & Oberman Foundation, and others, ERA is thrilled to offer a unique program at the luncheon. The event will feature a speech by equal pay advocate Lilly Ledbetter, a screening of an original video on equal pay, and the honoring of workers’ rights activist Saru Jayaraman. The annual celebration of women’s rights and ERA’s work attracts more than 800 local lawyers and activists.

Particular thanks is due to Wells Fargo, which has supported the luncheon for 17 years — for the last 14, they’ve been our lead platinum sponsor. ERA is continually grateful for Wells Fargo’s generous and longstanding support. For a full list of sponsors, click here.
