Social Impact: March of Dimes
01 Sep 2026
An evening of exceptional cuisine, community, and compassion
Sept-Oct 206


Charleston’s premier chefs will come together on Thursday, November 19, at the Charleston Gaillard Center for the 27th Annual March of Dimes Signature Chefs Auction. Guests will enjoy an evening of exceptional tastings, live and silent auctions, and unforgettable culinary experiences.
For 27 years, the Charleston Signature Chefs Auction has brought together the city’s culinary talent, community leaders, and philanthropists for an evening that celebrates the power good food has to do good in the community. This annual event raises critical funds to support healthier pregnancies and brighter futures for moms and babies while showcasing the generosity that defines the Lowcountry.
This year’s event is made possible through the support of presenting sponsor Atlas Tech, whose longstanding commitment to both Charleston and the March of Dimes mission has helped strengthen the organization’s impact throughout the community.
Leading the culinary experience is Executive Chef Kenny West of Marbled & Fin Charleston. Drawing on classical training in New York and Italy, along with a passion for mentorship and exceptional hospitality, West brings a thoughtful, ingredient-driven approach to one of the evening’s most anticipated experiences.

Guiding this year’s event as chairwoman is Charleston REALTOR® Sandra Patrick, a longtime March of Dimes supporter whose dedication to community service extends well beyond her profession. Her leadership, combined with a deep love for the Lowcountry, reflects the spirit of an event that continues to unite Charleston around a meaningful cause.
