FUND THE MISSION

All March of Dimes Signature Chefs events will be held virtually this year. While we may not be together in person, we rely on your continued support to provide innovative programs and services for moms, moms-to-be and babies who may be at a greater risk of becoming sick and not receiving proper or equitable care.

Event description

The chefs, volunteers and guests who make up our Signature Chefs Events community are coming together in new, innovative ways to suport moms and babies this year.

We are following state mandated guidelines in response to COVID-19 and will not have an in-person event this year. So, we are preparing an exciting, new Virtual Gala for your 2020 March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auction experience!

We need your help now more than ever. Your support funds:

  • COVID-19 interventions and support for moms and babies
  • Programs that promote health equity for moms and babies and directly combat racial disparities in maternal and child health
  • Free virtual NICU support program for families
  • Virtual prenatal programs for moms-to-be
  • Educational programs, including live Facebook panel discussions, to get info into the hands of moms and families
  • Necessary supplies for expectant mothers including blood pressure cuffs and masks and so much more!

Support the mission

Every year, 15 million babies are born prematurely worldwide, and 1 million will die before their first birthday. Your gift helps the March of Dimes fund research, education, advocacy and programs that help more moms have full-term pregnancies and healthy babies.

EVENT DETAILS

Join us for our annual gathering of the area’s finest culinary talent in support of the March of Dimes. Come and enjoy the chef’s creations before taking your seats for the Live Auction and Fund the Mission. Enjoy the evening, raise your paddle and give generously to save babies.

SUPPORT THE MISSION

Every year more than 15 million babies are born prematurely; a million will die before their first birthday as a result. This year's Dubuque ambassador family Tim and Penney Hilkin will share their touching story after welcoming their daughter Hannah at their 24 week appointment.  The family spent the next 105 days in the NICU.  Today, Hannah has been given a clean bill of health but continues to receive medications for her thyroid deficiency. Her prematurity will be a part of the Hilkin’s life forever.  With your gift at the March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auction, you can help to fund research, education and support to ensure more babies celebrate their first birthday and help more families like the Hilkin's.

EVENT LEADERSHIP

Thank you to this year's chairs Nicole Gantz of Honkamp Krueger and Eric Gantz of Verena Street, Vendors Unlimited and Pepsi-Cola and other volunteers for their dedication to make sure this event is a success. Through months of support these volunteers have taken this event to new heights. The March of Dimes and the families we support are grateful for the generous team who has made this evening possible.
