Our Founder: Landan Hoenig
Our Founder, Landan Hoenig, founded Teddies For Happiness in 2023 after getting the idea to host a law enforcement-based charity event earlier in the year after interning through Suffolk County Community College Criminal Justice Program with the Southampton Town Police Department on the East End of Long Island. Prior to creating Teddies For Happiness, Landan has actively volunteered in his local community, volunteering at his church's food pantry, Run the Farm at Bethel Hobbs Community Farm, Suffolk County Police Department's 6th Precinct National Night Out and Shop with a Cop events. With the goal of always wanting to help others, Landan set his sights on creating his own charitable foundation with the goal of being able to help serve the Long Island community he lived and grew up in.
