March of Dimes Chef Auction

November 8th was the 19th annual March of Dimes Chef Auction in Wichita Kansas. Lauren Sage and several other pageant girls were at the event volunteering. The Mission of the March of dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, infant mortality and premature birth through community services, advocacy, research and education. As a premature baby herself, Lauren Sage was honored to help with such an important event. She spent most of the evening talking to people who attended the event, asking them to purchase a March of Dimes bracelet that would allow them to participate in one of the evenings activities. Along with some of her friends they were able to sell over 150 bracelets and collect a significant amount for the event. She also enjoyed the wonderful food from 15 of Wichitas chefs! She participated in another fundraising event of the evening "Digging for Diamonds", although she ended up with only a "CZ" she loves it! What a wonderful evening spent raising funds for the March of Dimes.
