The Cooper James Costa Memorial Scholarship
On October 18, 2012, God blessed our son, George III and his wife, Leanne, with a beautiful son, Cooper James Costa.
Four short days later, Jesus carried Cooper to his heavenly home where he now serves as a warrior for God.
The Cooper James Costa Scholarship was conceived by my husband, George, as a way to honor Cooper's memory.
Scholarships are available to women who have or are currently employed in law enforcement or serving in the military, or are wives, mothers, or daughters of law enforcement officers or members of our armed forces, current or past, as well as women facing emotional, physical or financial hardships. The scholarships do not include travel costs.
