Past SBA Luncheons

The Susan B. Anthony “Feminist of the Year” Awards Luncheon is an annual event to honor individuals who promote feminist action and work to improve the life of women.

*************************************

At the 46th Annual Luncheon in February, 2019, we honored Intersectionality Activist/Advocate Arlene R Ustin, and the Keynote Speakers were Fred Guttenberg and his mother Ethel Guttenberg.  Fred’s daughter Jaime was one of the 17 victims murdered at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland on February 14, 2018.  The theme of this luncheon was addressing gun violence.
