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.
Enjoy two hours culinary tastings, led by Chef Cory Morris of Rural Society. After visiting the chefs stations, join us for a one-hour live auction and stage program that raises funds to give a fighting chance for every baby. Featured restaurants include: Chicago q, Devon Seafood Grill, Frontier, Mercadito Kitchen, Oak + Char, Piccolo Sogno, Pranzi, Rural Society, The Signature Room at the 95th, Tippling Hall, Troquet River North, Two, Vice District Brewing and Warm Belly. Valet parking is available for $24 at the hotel ballroom entrance located on the south side of the building off Columbus Drive. Upon arrival, please proceed to the Atlantic Ballroom.

Through partnerships with companies, organizations and individuals, the March of Dimes is able to create unique moments for your clients, vendors and leadership teams. They participate in an exclusive dining event while supporting a critical cause. Sponsorship opportunities are available at a variety of levels for our Signature Chefs events, providing you with brand recognition, civic engagement and an exclusive client entertainment opportunity within the event. We look forward to working with you to discuss your partnership with the March of Dimes. Click here to review sponsorship benefits. For additional sponsorship information or to get involved, please contact Kate Adams.
Every year, more than 15 million babies are born prematurely worldwide. Premature birth is the #1 killer of babies in the United States and the leading cause of death among children under 5 worldwide. Your gift helps the March of Dimes fund local research, education, advocacy and programs that help more moms have full-term pregnancies and healthy babies.
