BELLA Media + Co. and the Pediatric Cancer Foundation Celebrate a Memorable 4th Annual Cards for a Cure in the Hamptons with Special Guest Beth Stern

The Hamptons once again proved that style and substance make the perfect pairing as BELLA Media + Co. partnered with the Pediatric Cancer Foundation (PCF) for their 4th Annual Cards for a Cure, an unforgettable afternoon dedicated to raising awareness and support for pediatric cancer research.

Held at the stunning Oceanbleu Resort in Westhampton Beach, the event welcomed an inspiring gathering of philanthropists, entrepreneurs, business leaders, tastemakers, media personalities, and members of the Hamptons community, all united by a shared commitment to making a difference.

Guests spent the afternoon enjoying an elegant luncheon, cocktails, Canasta, Mahjong, Bridge, luxury shopping, exciting raffles, exclusive prizes, and meaningful conversation—all benefiting the Pediatric Cancer Foundation's mission to fund groundbreaking childhood cancer research.

This event was especially meaningful as BELLA celebrated its 13th year in the Hamptons, a milestone that reflects more than a decade of telling the stories that define the East End while bringing together influential voices, inspiring personalities, and purpose-driven partnerships. This year's collaboration with the Pediatric Cancer Foundation beautifully embodied BELLA's commitment to using its platform to elevate organizations creating meaningful impact.

The afternoon culminated with an exclusive VIP reception honoring BELLA Magazine's Summer Issue cover star, Beth Stern, whose lifelong dedication to philanthropy and animal welfare made her the perfect guest of honor. Guests celebrated alongside Stern while connecting with community leaders, supporters, and BELLA partners in an intimate setting.

"One of the greatest privileges of what we do at BELLA is using our platform to bring people together around causes that truly matter," said Vanessa Coppes, Editor-in-Chief and CEO of BELLA Media + Co."Cards for a Cure is more than an event—it's a reminder that when community, compassion, and purpose come together, extraordinary things happen. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who supported this year's event and helped advance the Pediatric Cancer Foundation's mission of bringing hope to children and families facing pediatric cancer."

The VIP reception was proudly presented by Millennial Plastic Surgery, led by Dr. David Shokrian, whose continued partnership with BELLA Media + Co. helped create an elevated experience while supporting an important cause.

No BELLA celebration would be complete without thoughtful details, and this year's event was no exception. Guests and VIPs departed with beautifully curated gift bags sponsored by Arid Blayne and Millennial Plastic Surgery, filled with premium gifts from Laura Geller Beauty, Millennial Plastic Surgery, and other brands, allowing attendees to take home a piece of the BELLA experience.

The afternoon was thoughtfully designed to delight guests at every turn. Beautiful décor by A2 Interior transformed the venue into an elegant and inviting space, while attendees captured memories throughout the day at a lively Photo Booth by A2 Interior. DJ Spin Diesel provided the perfect soundtrack, creating an upbeat atmosphere from the first toast to the final farewell. Guests also enjoyed delicious sweet treats from Jersey Cookie Girl, adding a memorable finishing touch to the celebration. Every meaningful moment—from heartfelt conversations to joyful celebrations—was beautifully documented by renowned photographer Miguel Pichardo, whose images captured the spirit, style, and purpose of the day.

Events like Cards for a Cure exemplify BELLA's mission to create meaningful connections through storytelling and experiences that inspire. By bringing together influential voices, purpose-driven brands, and charitable organizations, BELLA continues to demonstrate that luxury and philanthropy can go hand in hand.

BELLA Media + Co. extends its heartfelt gratitude to the Pediatric Cancer Foundation, Beth Stern, Dr. David Shokrian and the Millennial Plastic Surgery team, Arid Blayne, Laura Geller Beauty, A2 Interior, DJ Spin Diesel, Jersey Cookie Girl, Miguel Pichardo, every sponsor, partner, volunteer, vendor, and guest whose generosity, talent, and support made this extraordinary afternoon possible.
