Still want to help us? 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.
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:
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.
Letter from The Swisher Family: Erikson Vaughn Swisher arrived into the world in July of 2016 at only 31 weeks. He weighed 3 and half pounds. Erikson was taken to the NICU immediately receiving manual oxygen support. He was on a ventilator overnight and it was a few days before we could hold our baby boy. He remained on oxygen for several weeks and we stood by helpless as he needed to be fed through a feeding tube. Throughout his time in the NICU we witnessed the strength in Erikson as well as within ourselves. After 51 days he finally came home with us on breathing and heart monitor in which he wore at all times for several months. The ability to bond was difficult with wires and monitors between us, but our love continued to grow and always will. Today, Erikson is in excellent health and although he remains tiny, his outgoing personality and fighting strength is bigger than ever. We wish to thank you for joining us and all the other families who stand with the March of Dimes. Your contribution to the mission, no matter how big or small, has a BIG impact on those that are so small. Thank you, Amanda and Paul Swisher
