Co-Founder: Moving Seniors Forward, Community Resource Group
In 2008, I co-founded “Moving Seniors Forward” Community Resource Group, which consists of compassionate professionals who offer a variety of services dedicated to enhancing the lives of seniors and their families. Throughout the year this premiere resource group also sponsors educational seminars and events. Call me for a free member directory, or for additional information. Click here for more information.
City of Thousand Oaks Council on Aging, Housing Committee
For nine years I served on the City of Thousand Oaks Council on Aging & Housing. This organization is designed to address the needs of the Thousand Oaks community in general. More specifically, this committee works together to propose ideas and recommendations for the future housing needs of the residents of Thousand Oaks. Linda is also currently serving on the CSVP (Conejo Senior Volunteer Program). This organization supports many non-profits, and charitable organizations in our community.
American Cancer Society, Relay for Life
The American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life is one of the most well-known fundraising initiatives in the US. Inspired by her commitment for a cure, I participated for nearly a decade with Relay for Life of Thousand Oaks.
As a natural optimist, I’ve served as the Team Captain for several years. I appreciate the opportunity to mobilize my friends & peers for this very worthy cause. Spending time with my friends, raising money for a great cause, and community development make Relay for Life a valuable part of my life.
Americans Supporting Americans
Americans Supporting Americans (ASA) is an Associate Member of Moving Seniors Forward (MSF). MSF sponsors fundraising events to support the fine work done by the ASA Greater Conejo Valley Chapter.
ASA is a terrific non-profit organization that has developed the Adopt-A-Unit Program. Believing that a strong, supportive connection between young men and women of our armed forces and the civilian communities they are ready and willing to serve is crucial to morale, ASA has committed itself to building and strengthening this link.

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
As the mother of two and the grandmother of six beautiful grandchildren, I believe that contributing to the welfare of children has always been an important aspect of my commitment to the community. The tragedy that comes from childhood cancer is a devastating reality for many families.
That’s why I donate a portion of my earnings to St. Jude Children’s Hospital for Cancer Research, in the hopes that their life-changing research will spare children and their families from this overwhelming sickness.
Village Voices Chorale
The Village Voices Chorale is a local choral group that recently celebrated their 50th anniversary. Village Voices is active in community development and they organize and host community events and fundraisers to support elementary music and choir programs. They also raise funds to provide scholarships for students who plan to major in voice programs.
As a former board member, I’ve served to help raise funds for their biannual themed concerts at the Civic Arts Plaza and at other community venues. I am a longtime member of Village Voices and delight in singing as a first soprano!
