As a "thank you" for helping to support the drive for equality, Table Captains are listed in Dinner advertisements, invitations and program books. It's easy! You can register as a table captain either online or by phone.

Volunteers
The enthusiastic and indomitable spirit of HRC volunteers is an essential aspect of the organization’s success and it continues a long tradition of LGBT activism. The Austin Dinner is planned each year by an all-volunteer Dinner Committee. Volunteer Opportunities Depending on your area of interest or background, there are many volunteer opportunities open each year on the Austin Dinner Committee and its subcommittees. Each subcommittee is led by a team of co-chairs and works to develop key aspects of the Dinner. Volunteer Sub-Committee HRC owes much of its event success to its volunteer force. The Volunteer Sub-Committee provides a pool of volunteers for pre-Dinner events and for the night of the Dinner itself. Volunteers on this sub-committee have the opportunity to attend the Dinner and assist with ushering, greeting, assembling gift bags and the Silent Auction. Several volunteers opportunities are available the weekend of the Austin Dinner, if you are interested in helping out to email the volunteer coordinators.
