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.
The Signature Chef Auction pays tribute to the culinary excellence of chefs in the Lansing area. The chefs are the highlight of the event, with the food they prepare and the live auction packages they bring to the event. Guests are given the opportunity to visit personally with each of the chefs, taste their cuisine, and learn more about the restaurants they represent. The event will be at the Causeway Bay Hotel in Lansing, MI on Monday, November 13, 2017. Attendees represent leaders from the political, business, sports and media arenas in the Greater Lansing area. It is an upscale event for people that enjoy fine dining, good wines, and a social evening with friends and family. Call 517.709.2251 for more information or email [email protected]
