Hamptons Benefit To Support East Hampton Native With Two Life-Threatening Blood Disorders

Anastasia Lennonby Anastasia Lennon

Home Recreation

The East End community will come together on Friday, March 9, to show its continued support for East Hampton native, Jessica Greene. The benefit at the American Legion Post in Amagansett will raise funds for Greene’s upcoming treatment at Memorial Sloan Kettering for aplastic anemia and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria–both life-threatening blood disorders.

First diagnosed in August 2017, Greene received confirmation late last month that her doctors and transplant team had found a perfect match from a group of five potential donors. She was originally set to be admitted this Friday, the same day as the benefit, for the chemotherapy, radiation, and immunosuppressive therapy treatments that are required prior to receiving the bone marrow transplant.

Recently, though, her admission date was rescheduled to March 21 so that the confirmed donor can undergo further testing. This delay came as a disappointment to Greene, who is very eager to start her treatment.

Despite this small setback, community support has been outstanding thus far. Since January, the YouCaring fundraising page created by her family and friends has raised over $108,000 by nearly 600 donors. There does not appear to be any signs of support waning, as over 100 people ticked the ‘going’ box on the event’s Facebook page.

The benefit is from 6 to 10 p.m. at the American Legion Post 419. The suggested donation at the door is $20, with all proceeds going towards Jessica’s treatment. There will be food donated by Hamptons Foodie, a cash bar (which will support the American Legion), and casino tables with black jack, craps, and poker. Helen McGuire of the Diva’s Karaoke is donating her services so that attendees can partake in some karaoke fun.

Additionally, there will be a silent auction and a Chinese auction with items donated from business and individuals in the community. The list of items for the Chinese auction includes gift certificates to local restaurants and businesses, a $500 gift certificate for tickets to Stephen Talkhouse shows, and framed prints/photos. The silent auction includes courtside tickets to a Brooklyn Nets game, a week-long vacation to Scottsdale, Arizona, and a gift basket from Turpan worth $1,000.

“We’re all looking forward to having the treatment start,” says Lisa Larsen, Jessica’s aunt. “We’re so thankful to everyone who has donated and that people are still donating. It’s wonderful.”

American Legion Post 419 is located at 15 Montauk Highway in Amagansett. For more information and updates about Jessica’s story, please visit youcaring.com/jessicagreene. For information about the event, visit www.facebook.com.

  • From Hollywood red carpets to Milan exhibits and Hamptons fashion shoots, Filbert Kung has photographed the world—but it’s his quiet, unguarded, and attentive nature that reveals the artist behind the lens.⁠ @filbert_kung 
⁠
I met Filbert Diego Kung at a Grey/Ven fashion event in Amagansett last summer. He’s one of those rare photographers who instantly puts you at ease—calm, composed, and naturally good at making anyone feel like they belong in front of his lens. Had I known then just how in-demand Filbert is in the fashion and photography world, I probably wouldn’t have asked him to snap a few shots of me goofing off on the red carpet. But maybe that makes me a model? Either way, it was my first glimpse of how effortlessly he captures people as they are. In my case, goofy-but-make-it-chic.⁠
⁠
Since then, I’ve seen him popping up around the Hamptons, often between flights to LA, Miami, or wherever the next big editorial or campaign takes him. Originally from the Philippines, Filbert has spent over fifteen years building a career that bridges Hollywood red carpets, high-fashion editorials, and fine art portraiture. ⁠

  • 30 Huntting Lane, East Hampton, NY 11937⁠
Saunders Exclusive: $7,250,000⁠
@romainehamptons 
@hamptonsrealestate 
⁠
⁠
At the bend of Huntting Lane in East Hampton Village, a remarkably restored Queen Anne Victorian—now offered for sale—stands as impressive as it is improbable.⁠
⁠
Built in 1896 by James Edward Huntting and held by his family for over a century, the estate is a masterclass in American craftsmanship—built to endure and beautifully restored. Graceful gables, revived millwork, and preserved character bridge Gilded Age ambition, Hamptons high society, and highlight the enduring power of community in the Village. ⁠
⁠
Here, history feels alive—not in signs of wear, but rather in the lack thereof, a testament to the care that has returned the home to its original glory. Every detail has been honored, presenting a rare historic gem ready for its next chapter.⁠

  • Every year at the Hamptons International Film Festival, there is a film that captures the local East End experience. This year, many believe that film is ON THE END, written and directed by Ari Selinger. In a half-hour Zoom call, Ari Selinger shared the story of how his debut writer-director indie-drama film came about.⁠
⁠
He said, “I was location scouting all over New York, and I found myself on Navy Road (Montauk) back in 2011 with my production designer friend. We were two 20-year-old film students (NYU) looking for a shoddy auto repair shop that we could use to shoot a film. There I met this guy, Tom, in front of his very dirty property. He was fixing a car. He came up to the window and not only told us about numerous people to talk to… he just knew all these names, and he just seemed to be a resource. He’d always be whispering in my ear about this thing he was going through with the town, about this battle, about him trying to keep his house. And it totally went over my head at the time. I did not know very much about zoning laws and property values, and maybe I was a little bit cavalier about it, but back in 2016, there was a big piece in the New York Times on his story.”⁠

  • Sag Harbor resident, actor, writer, and teacher Josh Pais has spent decades exploring what it means to be fully present—on screen and in life. Known for his roles in Joker, Ray Donovan, the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and many others, he has more than 150 film and television credits to his name. He has now turned his focus inward with his new memoir, Lose Your Mind: The Path to Creative Invincibility, which was released on September 30, 2025.⁠
⁠
Drawing on his years of experience as founder of the Committed Impulse training method, Josh offers readers a bold invitation to release self-judgment, lean into all feelings, and connect with the spontaneous energy that fuels authentic creativity. His message—both playful and profound—challenges the myth of “good” and “bad” emotions and instead celebrates the full spectrum of human experience.⁠
⁠
Josh will visit Sag Harbor for a reading and book signing this Sunday, October 12th from 4:00–5:30 p.m. at Grenning Gallery (26 Main Street, Sag Harbor). ⁠
