Thank you to this year's sponsors and supporters. We sold over 2200 tickets this year, a SPUR record!

The annual Silver SPUR Awards Luncheon is San Francisco’s largest and most important civic event of the year. Over 2,000 people will pay tribute to five people who make our city and region a better place to live and work. This event has evolved over 49 years, but its purpose remains the same: to recognize the contributions and dreams of remarkable San Franciscans.
