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.
Join us for our 9th annual gathering of the area's finest culinary talent in support of the March of Dimes. From your arrival at the event you will enjoy the chance to taste from the chef's creations for a 90-minute tasting experience before taking your seats for the Live Auction and Fund the Mission. Enjoy dessert while you bid one of our unique packages and raise your paddle and give generously to save babies. Check out our exciting new venue for 2017!

Thanks to the leadership of our volunteer chairs and committees we are honored to present the Signature Chefs event. Through months of support these volunteers have taken the 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. 2017 Event Chair: Nadine Bubeck, Mama B. Designs Nadine Bubeck is a former Phoenix TV News Anchor turned work at home mompreneur. The fashion designer, author, blogger, and boy mom is a proud supporter of March of Dimes, after her first son Nicholas was born premature. Thankfully, Nicholas' birth story was a lucky one- he arrived a four-pound fighter and only spent seven nights in the NICU. Overcome with the magnitude of motherhood and feeling blessed her baby was born healthy, Nadine sought to get involved with March of Dimes, launching Mama B. Designs, a boutique apparel company that benefits the foundation. She is thrilled to serve as the Signature Chef's Chair and finds fulfillment in spreading prematurity awareness. Please visit her Crowdrise page here to give every baby a fighting chance.
Our Signature Chefs are made up of local culinary talent who create a selection of fine cuisine for an exclusive audience. Our chefs are artists, innovators and philanthropists, and we look forward to sharing their talents at our event.
