A Summer Night For Women

Northwell Health’s eighth annual Summer Hamptons Evening brought more than 300 supporters together in Water Mill, raising over $650,000 for the Katz Institute for Women’s Health and advancing specialized care for women at every stage of life.

Northwell Health’s Summer Hamptons Evening returned to Water Mill on August 8, raising more than $650,000 in support of the Katz Institute for Women’s Health and the communities served by Northwell. Now in its eighth year, the event has generated nearly $7 million since its inception.

More than 300 guests gathered at the residence of Victoria Moran-Furman, who co-hosted the evening with Iris and Saul Katz, longtime benefactors of the Katz Institute, Eric Moran and celebrity event planner Larry Scott of Lawrence Scott Events. Rosanna Scotto, co-host of Fox 5’s, served as emcee.

The evening highlighted Northwell’s ongoing commitment to advancing individualized care for women. The Katz Institute for Women’s Health has developed a network of more than 1,100 specialists dedicated to addressing women’s health needs across every stage of life.

Stephanie Trentacoste McNally, MD, medical director of the Katz Institute and system director of menopause and midlife health, spoke about Northwell’s growing investment in specialized centers focused on menopause and midlife care. The new model brings experts from multiple disciplines together in one location, allowing patients to receive more coordinated and comprehensive treatment. The first center opened in Stony Brook in March, with additional locations planned across the Northwell system.

Stacey E. Rosen, MD, executive director of the Katz Institute and senior vice president for women’s health at Northwell, emphasized the importance of philanthropy in expanding access to this level of care.

“The generosity of our donors who believe in our mission fuels our ability to continually elevate this care,” Rosen said, noting that the goal is to help women across Northwell’s communities live longer, healthier lives.

Rosen has also served as volunteer president of the American Heart Association, where her work has focused on improving women’s heart and brain health, reducing research gaps and encouraging preventive care throughout a woman’s lifetime.

The Summer Hamptons Evening was supported by an extensive group of sponsors, including Victoria Moran-Furman, Iris and Saul Katz, Eric Moran, Lawrence Scott Events, Michael Fisch, and Iris and Michael Smith, along with numerous other philanthropic supporters.

With another successful evening in the Hamptons, Northwell continues to pair community generosity with a broader mission: transforming women’s health care through specialized expertise, coordinated treatment and expanded access.
