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.
Event Chair: Wendy Simon Armstrong & Jessica Johnson Mission Family Honoree: The Montalvo Family Join us for the 2015 March of Dimes Signature Chefs, a benefit for babies, an event to raise funds for the campaign to end prematurity. The event is a culinary showcase, featuring San Francisco’s top culinary masters. This rare opportunity is made possible by participating chefs graciously donating their time and talent to create a food experience beyond any available at a single location in San Francisco. Each tasting is thoughtfully created to tantalize the palette of even the savviest “foodie” and highlight the chef’s unique and exceptional talents. Amidst a lively party atmosphere and exciting entertainment, guests will enjoy exquisite cuisine, spirited cocktails and enticing auction packages.
1 in 11 babies in San Francisco will be born premature. Prematurity is one of the most significant health threats to moms and babies today, the leading cause of death amongst newborns, and the leading cause of lasting childhood disabilities. In California, March of Dimes is currently funding 26 research grants totaling more than $6 million, and is committed to finding the cause and prevention of preterm birth. You can help fight premature birth by making an 100% tax deductible donation at the event or click here to make your donation today.
By purchasing a table or donating during Fund the Mission, you are helping to ensure one day all babies will be born healthy.
