The Lynch family
-
The Lynch School is named in honor of Carolyn A. and Peter S. Lynch, renowned philanthropists with a lifelong commitment to education.
Carolyn and Peter were both children of educators whose upbringings stressed the importance of basic human values and spiritual traditions. Their approach to philanthropy seeks to make a lasting impact, as exemplified by their charitable investments in changemaking organizations such as City Year, Teach for America, Posse Foundation, Year Up Foundation, and Mass Mentoring Partnership.
“The Lynch School has a wonderful and distinctive mission: to enhance the human condition, expand the human imagination, and make the world more just. Through our research, teaching, and service, we strive to understand and create opportunities for others to develop as whole people across multiple interrelated dimensions—intellectually, spiritually, socially, emotionally, and ethically. ”
