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.

MEET OUR AMBASSADOR FAMILY

THE FLUELLEN FAMILY: TWIN PREGNANCY JOURNEY

When the Fluellen family discovered they were expecting twins, they were overwhelmed with shock, fear, and joy. Despite early challenges with severe sickness, their baby girls met growth milestones until an unexpected complication at 32 weeks led to continuous hospital monitoring. Thanks to quality care, they welcomed healthy twins at 36 weeks. As this year’s Ambassador Family, they’re committed to supporting March of Dimes’ mission to ensure that every mom and baby, regardless of circumstance, has access to vital healthcare.

The Fluellen Family is happy and healthy today, they have stepped forward to help other NICU families through March of Dimes.
