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 Jacksonville's premier culinary event, featuring a mix of the area's top culinary talent in support of the mission of the March of Dimes.

This year's 28th Annual Signature Chefs Auction event promises to be full of fantastic food and even more great times!

As the highlight of a lively cocktail reception, this year's featured Signature Chefs will open their tasting stations to compete for your "Top Chef" vote.

After the tasting, guests will enjoy dessert and wine in the grand ballroom, while bidding on an array of exciting live auction packages featuring exclusive chef experiences, getaways, and much more. Attendees will also have a very special opportunity to help "Fund the Mission" of the March of Dimes.

Join the fun with Jacksonville's finest, and remember to raise your paddle high and often to support healthy babies!

SUPPORT THE MISSION

The March of Dimes is pleased to announce this year's Ambassadors: The Stephens family.

As one of many families touched by the mission of the March of Dimes, Mario Christopher & Marshelly along with their preemie twins, Mario Michael & Mila, have a very special story to share with you at this year's event.
