Each year, the Colorado Women's Bar Association Foundation (CWBAF) honors women lawyers who have made a difference in our communities and have "raised the bar" for all of us. The evening promises to be memorable, with attendees gathering in person to celebrate the accomplishments of our honorees and thank them for paving the way for other women in Colorado and around the nation.
The 2025 Annual Raising the Bar Celebration will be held on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, at the Denver Art Museum.
This year's theme is "Profiles In Courage: Honoring Women Who Raise The Bar By Speaking Truth To Power, Breaking Barriers, And Leading Through Adversity." Now more than ever, it takes courage to stand up for what we believe in. We want to honor those women who are demonstrating courage in their work and their commitment to justice. Please help us celebrate the superheroes among us who are raising the bar by bravely standing up, leaping over obstacles, and charging forward in the face of adversity.
Please join us at this popular annual event to help us continue our important work.
The Colorado Women's Bar Association Foundation's (CWBAF) mission since 1988 is to promote the advancement of women in the law, and to harness the power of the legal profession to protect and promote the welfare of all women. CWBAF works in conjunction with the Colorado Women's Bar Association (CWBA) to implement the CWBA's charitable and educational work.
