<p class="x_MsoNoSpacing"><b><u>About the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation (SASF):</u></b></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">The Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation (SASF) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that relies on the generosity of our donors and volunteers to care for the homeless animals in our community and place them in loving “forever homes.” The number of animals in need of our help is growing every day. The overpopulation of pets on Long Island is a major issue and sadly more amazing animals are ending up homeless. Whether caring for strays found wandering the streets, rescuing neglected and abandoned animals, or saving dogs from the horrors of the puppy mill industry, the shelter is a safe haven for all animals and for some, the last resort. Without SASF, these animals would not be able to survive. The shelter provides a steppingstone for animals to find loving homes. It offers them housing, food, medical treatment, training, and rehabilitation when necessary.</p>

<p>Powerhouse philanthropists <strong>Jean Shafiroff</strong> and <strong>Henry Buhl</strong> were part of a panel of speakers on hand to celebrate the screening of <strong>Robin Melanie Leacock</strong>’s documentary <strong>“A Passion For Giving”</strong> Saturday in Southampton. Jean Shafiroff spoke about the great benefits of giving, her life  and the importance of teaching future generations to become philanthropists. Animal activist and actress <strong>Missy Hargraves</strong> took the stage to introduce the PBS film in which she is featured along with <strong>Henry Buhl</strong>, <strong>Donna Karan, Count Alexandre de Lesseps, Carolina Herrera</strong>, MTV founder <strong>John Sykes</strong>, and RUN DMC’s <strong>Darryl McDaniels</strong> with cameos by <strong>Dan Ackroyd, Richard Branson, Roger Waters, Fran Liebowitz, </strong>and<strong> President Bill Clinton. Candace Bushnell, </strong>along with “The Grandfather of Venture Capitalism, <strong>Alan Patricof</strong>, legendary concert promoter <strong>Ron Delsener</strong>, and <strong>G.E. Smith</strong> of <strong>SNL</strong> fame showed up.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Jean made an appearance at a private dinner hosted by Buhl attended by <strong>LuAnn de Lesseps</strong>, and <strong>Pamela O’Connor</strong>; then joined other movie-goers that dined at the all new <strong>Union Sushi &amp; Steak </strong>a modern take on the steakhouses of old; who donated a portion of proceeds to <strong>The Southampton Animal Shelter</strong>. The sold-out socially-distanced event, touted by Vanity Fair as “honest, heartfelt, and inspirational,” launches a nation-wide tour of the film about philanthropy.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>A Message from Our Vice President,</strong><br />
<strong>Dr. Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura</strong></p>
<p>Dear Friend –</p>
<p>I arrived in America in 1962, a young Japanese woman intent on a career in music. In the six decades since, I have overcome prejudice through Courage and Compassion to have triumphed in three fields – international Impresario, oriental medical doctor, and philanthropist.</p>
<p>My memoirs, my lessons learned, are now available in print in Amazon – two volumes with images and narratives of my years of experiences. I HUMBLY REQUEST YOU JOIN MY “<strong>LAUNCH TEAM</strong>.” I request you jot down a short review for use in marketing my story around the world.</p>
<p>The title of book is <strong>Journey of Courage and Compassion</strong> by Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura, PhD. It has two volumes. The book volume I is already live sale in <a href="https://www.amazon.com/">www.amazon.com</a>. You need to search my book title and author’s name in Amazon. Please download eBook (digital version) instantly at $2.99 and I will reimburse you. You can also write a review at same place. I am in a final process of completing volume II to go live sale within a week.</p>
<p>I hope to share with you my experiences with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Leonard Bernstein, Mother Teresa, Pavarotti, Princess Grace, etc. My life has been an interesting journey. I hope my experience will encourage the next generation to find their own.</p>
<p>With gratitude and compassion,</p>
<p><strong>Dr Kazuko Hillyer Tatsumura</strong><br />

<iframe loading="lazy" width="757" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/asZ4D4mxq8I" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe><br />
Early life and education<br />
Allen’s interest in show business began during his childhood, when he would accompany his mother to NBC studios in Burbank where she worked as a publicist.</p>
<p>At age 14, Allen put together his first stand-up routine and began appearing on amateur night at comedy clubs throughout the Los Angeles area.</p>
<p>Career<br />
Comedian Jimmie Walker saw Allen&#8217;s stand-up act and invited the 14-year-old comedian to join his comedy writing team alongside promising young comedians Jay Leno and David Letterman. At age 18, Allen made his television debut on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. One of his earliest roles was as a regular presenter on the NBC series Real People during the show&#8217;s entire run.</p>
<p>His show &#8220;Jammin&#8221; was picked up as &#8220;Kickin&#8217; It with Byron Allen&#8221; in 1992, and by the end of its run had made the list of longest-running United States television series. Allen’s foray into television production began in Los Angeles in 1993 when he founded Entertainment Studios with the launch of his first series — Entertainers with Byron Allen—a weekly, one-hour series profiling the current stars of film and television.</p>
<p>In 2009, Allen launched eight 24-hour HD television networks simultaneously: Automotive.TV, Cars.TV, Comedy.TV, ES.TV, Justice Central, MyDestination.TV, Pets.TV and Recipe.TV.</p>
<p>Among the company’s top programs are: Emmy-winning Cars.TV, Emmy-nominated America&#8217;s Court with Judge Ross and We the People with Gloria Allred, Comics Unleashed, Comedy.TV, Beautiful Homes &#038; Great Estates, Pets.TV, Recipe.TV, Career Day and The Young Icons. His company also made its first foray into scripted programming, producing two weekly primetime sitcoms that debuted in September 2012: The First Family and Mr. Box Office.</p>
<p>In 2016, Entertainment Studios purchased TheGrio, a digital, video-centric news platform devoted to providing compelling entertainment, news and lifestyle content for African-Americans.</p>
<p>In 2017 the game show Funny You Should Ask was added to the roster of Byron Allen produced shows.</p>
<p>Allen acquired the television assets of The Weather Channel for approximately $300 million in March 2018. In 2019, he announced the launch of THE WEATHER CHANNEL ESPANOL which is slated for 2020, and will soon also launch LOCAL NOW, powered by THE WEATHER CHANNEL technology. Also in 2019, he would partner with Sinclair Broadcast Group to acquire Fox Sports Networks, which The Walt Disney Company was forced to sell as a condition of its purchasing 21st Century Fox.</p>
<p>Awards<br />
In 2018, Allen was selected for the Bloomberg 50 for his accomplishments as a global business leader. He was also selected for the 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs at the Goldman Sachs Builders &#038; Innovators Summit 2018, and he was honored as a Distinguished Guest Speaker at the Salvation Army Christmas Kettle Luncheon in December 2018. In January 2019, Allen was a recipient of NATPE&#8217;s 16th Annual Brandon Tartikoff Legacy Awards, presented during the annual NATPE Miami Marketplace &#038; Conference. Allen was also honored with the 2019 Whitney M. Young Jr. Award at the 46th annual Los Angeles Urban League Awards dinner.</p>
<p>Personal life<br />
Allen married Jennifer Lucas in 2007. The couple has three children: two daughters born in 2008 and 2010, and a son, born in 2012.</p>
