The Jeanie C. Linders Fund® (JCLF) is a nonprofit organization that specifically focuses on women, as they possess the power and the desire to help not only their families, but their communities as well. By empowering women and their businesses, JCLF taps into the best way to drive an economy and promote lasting solutions. JCLF was established in 2005 and since that time, we have worked with organizations from our hometown in Central Florida to Nairobi, Kenya and many places in between.

Jeanie Linders, writer and producer of the international hit show Menopause The Musical® (MTM), and her new theatrical show The Mommies-A Musical Blog™  to premiere May 2011, is our founder. With the international success of MTM, she realized that the uplifting musical is a tremendous resource to positively reach thousands of women across the United States and around the world. The Foundation presented the Menopause The Musical Out Loud® Tour: Breaking The Silence of Ovarian Cancer which was inspired by our long-time friend Janet Rigdon who fought a courageous battle with the disease.

There’s No Place Like Home National®, a program of the Jeanie C. Linders Fund®, has recently completed building homes in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.  Communities from across the nation come together for one common goal – providing a home for a woman and her family who lost their homes due to natural and catastrophic disasters.

As we move forward, we will continue our mission to empower women…to truly make a difference in women’s lives in the United States and throughout the world. We’re excited about what the Foundation has and will continue to achieve and the lives it will touch along the way.

Empowering Women Worldwide,

Kim Whitehurst, President
