We’ve established this scholarship to assist low income students in the furthering of their education. Through the tragic loss of our son, we found purpose

Today would have been our sweet boy, Landon Jack's, 8th birthday.

In his memory, Mom, Big Sister, Tia, and one of our closest family friends once again made donations to the children at Casa do Gaiato in São Miguel, Azores. These donations are made personally by Kitty & Farley and are not funded by the scholarship. Seeing the smiles on the children's faces brought a little light to an otherwise difficult day and reminded us that love continues to live on through acts of kindness.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who supports the Landon Jack Verissimo Santos Memorial Scholarship. Your generosity helps keep Landon's memory alive while creating opportunities for students to pursue their dreams.

Landon is loved, missed, and remembered every single day. 💙⚓️💙

Today, we had the privilege of awarding the 2026 Landon Jack Verissimo Santos Memorial Scholarship to an extraordinary young woman, Samantha S. of Danbury High School.

Samantha’s story is one of resilience, compassion, leadership, and determination. After facing serious medical challenges as a child, she turned those experiences into a passion for helping others and is pursuing a degree in Health Science at Saint Joseph’s University on her path to becoming a Physician Assistant.

Throughout high school, Samantha distinguished herself through ConnCAP Upward Bound, the YMCA College Prep and Youth & Government programs, extensive community service, and her commitment to helping families, children, and seniors in our community. She has been recognized for her leadership, academic achievement, and her unwavering dedication to making a difference in the lives of others.

What impressed us the most is desire not only to provide healthcare, but to ensure that people feel heard, understood, and supported. That spirit embodies exactly what this scholarship was created to honor.

We are incredibly proud to recognize Samantha as this year’s recipient. Congratulations, Samantha. Your future is bright, and I have no doubt you will change countless lives for the better while helping carry on Landon’s legacy through your service to others.
