Purchase a Sponsorship Package

Each year, the San Francisco Historical Society honors one or more individuals at our Annual Awards Luncheon who have made significant contributions to the historic or cultural fabric of San Francisco.  This year’s 2023 honoree is Joanne Hayes-White, San Francisco’s Fabulous Female Fire Chief.

All sponsorship proceeds benefit the San Francisco Historical Society who is a registered nonprofit organization with tax ID #68-0104888. Your generosity supports our publications, education programs, and our museum exhibits at 608 Commercial Street in the heart of San Francisco’s Financial District.

The setting for this year’s Annual Awards Luncheon is the classic Peacock Court in the historic Mark Hopkins Hotel atop Nob Hill. There will be a live auction at the luncheon, with items including weekend getaways, travel adventures, San Francisco historical artifacts, and other fabulous items.

We would be delighted if you would be one of the sponsors of this event. Below is the list of sponsorship opportunities and benefits along with the sponsorship form. If you have any questions, please contact our director, Lana Costantini at (415) 537-1105 ext. 2, or via email at lana@sfhistory.org.
