Amy Green and Gary
Green hosted the second Footprint
of Life Gala at their residence in
Bridgehampton. The family-run The Green
Vision Foundation curated a star-studded
night to bring together like-minded
organizations to collectively support
and bring much-needed awareness of the
environmental challenges facing our
World.
The environmental-themed
“50 Shades of Blue” soiree benefitted
the charity partners’ work to preserve
and protect the environment and our
natural world, promote community
upliftment, and support conservation and
education programs. This event built on
the inaugural Footprint of Life Gala and
aims to pave the way for many more
events to come that will center around
the critical issues facing communities
throughout the world. Tusk.org matched
every dollar raised at the Gala, helping
Footprint of Life reach our goal of just
under a million dollars. The funds will
go towards anti-poaching programs,
protecting biodiversity, and supporting
education initiatives.
At the gala, guests
experienced a performance by three-time
Grammy award winner and Screen Actors
Guild award recipient, Ludacris.
In addition, guests enjoyed musical
performances from the London Electronic
Orchestra as well as curated food and
drink options with distinguished Chef
Ronica Copes, Arthur and Sons, Chef
Richard Pims’ famous truffle pizzas, and
Aristocrats Catering’s delectable bites.
In addition, there was also a live
auction. The event featured premium
beverages from Dom Perignon, Patron,
Aldez and Zen Water. At the end of the
evening, attendees received gifts
including Tata Harper’s beautiful
skincare products and Harmonist perfume
gift sets.
The gala also celebrated
the next generation of climate activists
and honored Xiye Bastida. Bastida
