    Linda Finnegan, Founder and Executive Director of Kids With A Cause, combines a wealth of knowledge about motivating and exciting young children and teens with extensive hands-on experience in teaching young students, directing camp programs, and writing and producing educational media.

    For the past several years, Linda has been involved in educating children through her own tutorial video programs entitled "Batteries Charged!" Linda's philosophy has always been to support the dynamic child within and nurture responsibility.

    Linda's education has been a deliberate program of exposure to every aspect of children's growth in social, emotional, physical and intellectual areas, from courses in child psychology/development and early childhood education, to the study of exceptional children and perceptual motor assessment training. She holds a Child Development Associate Degree from the Child Development Consortium in Washington, DC, and was awarded the top rating of "Excellent" in all thirteen areas of discipline for the degree.

    Kids aren't the only ones who benefit from Linda's skill and enthusiasm. Major national corporations have called upon her expertise in creating, writing, producing, and facilitating programs that educate, motivate and entertain. American Express, Deloitte & Touche, Grolier Interstate, Nabisco, Times Mirror, and many other Fortune 500 companies use sales, management, marketing and training programs that she has developed.

    Her outstanding communication skills and vibrant personality have also propelled her into producing sports/entertainment home video programs. Linda has also been the driving force behind many charitable fundraising events domestically and in other parts of the world. She is probably best known for her creative role in the development of the Audrey Hepburn Children's Fund prior to establishing Kids With A Cause.

    In what she laughingly calls her spare time, Linda enjoys horseback riding, outdoor activities, bicycling and spending time with children. A native Californian, she currently resides in Culver City.
