By james art LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) – The March of Dimes will host its biggest fundraiser of the year Thursday night.
Signature Chefs: Feeding Motherhood brings in top chefs from across the Hub City to donate their time to prepare delicious treats while guests bid on auction items and learn more about the nonprofit.
All proceeds stay local to benefit moms and babies in our area, in part by providing NICU families with comfort food during the holidays.
“You know what you’re helping,” Mandy Pettit said. “They have food that matters. They bring food to families who have babies in the NICU over the holidays, just to have a little comfort and just know someone is there.”

“At the time I had preeclampsia, I didn’t really know much about it, so the education they provide and the preventative care they want moms to have access to is something I’m very passionate about,” Jackie Nghiem said.
Signature Chefs will be on Thursday at 6:30pm at Buddy Holly Hall.
