The Jenny Lin Foundation was incorporated in 1994 after the tragic and brutal murder of Jenny Lin, a talented and well-loved fourteen-year-old girl. The foundation's mission is to aid law enforcement officials in apprehending the perpetrator as well as increase community awareness of child safety. In addition, the foundation sponsors many music and safety events which benefit the East Bay communities.

We are a non-profit tax exempt organization.  We are also a member of Castro Valley Chamber of Commerce and Local Independent Charities of America.


    Upcoming Events:

    • The 15th anniversary service and candle light vigil to honor the slain teenage girl, Jenny Lin, is scheduled on Friday, May 22, 2009, starting at 6:30 PM, at Canyon Middle School on 19600 Cull Canyon Road in Castro Valley.   Read the press release.
