The basic ingredients
Signature Chefs Auctions are exciting events that pay tribute to the culinary distinction of 15 to 25 of the finest chefs, caterers and local celebrity chefs while raising money to support the March of Dimes mission of saving babies. Each chef is asked to present their signature dish in miniature form as well as donate a unique package to be sold during a live auction. After enjoying a large reception, while bidding on enticing silent auction packages, guests are invited to bid on a variety of packages related to entertainment, dining, leisure and travel in our lively live auction.

Held in more than 190 cities across the country, Signature Chefs Auctions have raised more than $99 million for the March of Dimes since 1989. In 2007, our Signature Chefs Auction evenings raised more than $15 million – an all-time record! Our Signature Chefs Auctions' elegant combination of fabulous food, great wines, good company, priceless auction packages, and a great cause will create an evening to remember!

Stir up some excitement!
