Annual Luncheon: Only Premier Tickets Remain - Get Yours Today!

We are thrilled by the overwhelming response to the Annual Luncheon this year and are truly grateful for your support.

At this time, a very limited number of premier tickets remain available for purchase. We have reached capacity for all other luncheon seating. A premier ticket at $340 provides access to our morning reception with Abby Wambach and preferred seating.

For other tickets, we can add your name to our waitlist and will notify you no later than Sept. 17 if seats become available. Please email Elva Escobedo, events manager, to add your name to the waitlist. If you hold a regular ticket and would like to upgrade to a premier ticket, please email Marie Medina, director of development.

We deeply appreciate your commitment to advancing women and gender-expansive individuals across Colorado. If we’re unable to seat you this year, we look forward to connecting with you at future gatherings!

What Makes Us Unique

We are the only statewide, community-funded foundation protecting the progress and advancing gender, racial, and economic equity for all Colorado women with a commitment to those facing the steepest barriers on the basis of their background and identity. We are driven by the belief that when women thrive, so do children, families, communities, and the economy.

Unlike private foundations, it is only through financial contributions of individuals, families, funders, and businesses that our work is possible.
