Join us for an evening of elegance, prestige and the Red Cross mission.
The Red Cross Gala is an annual volunteer-led, black-tie benefit that raises support for Red Cross preparedness, response and recovery programs in our community. Now celebrating its 30th year, the 2025 event promises to be a special evening honoring the past and looking to the future from San Francisco’s newest premier venue, The Conservatory at One Sansome.
This year’s event is themed “A Pillar of Hope and Resilience” and will include a Fund the Mission segment to support the work we do in our communities each and every day. Nationwide, the Red Cross responds to a disaster every 8 minutes; our region–which covers 15 counties across the Greater Bay Area–responded to more than 800 disasters last fiscal year, the majority being home fires.

The Red Cross Gala and our mission succeed thanks to the generosity of our donors and partners. Their support ensures we can answer the call whenever and wherever there’s a need. We are grateful and proud to celebrate 30 years of the Gala with our 2025 sponsors.
Standing for generations as the nerve center of the San Francisco Financial District, The Conservatory's graceful architecture - punctuated by granite-clad 38-foot Doric columns - and unique indoor/outdoor nature makes the venue one of the City's most coveted gathering spaces. Boasting a standing capacity of more than 2,000 guests, on site-access to BART and Muni, and its position just four blocks from Moscone Center, no other San Francisco event facility is so uniquely prepared to host the most complex and important events.
