The Lynch family
-
The Lynch School is named in honor of Carolyn A. and Peter S. Lynch, renowned philanthropists with a lifelong commitment and devotion to education. In addition to Boston College, the Lynch family’s foundation supports the Inner-City Scholarship Fund, which increases access to Catholic schools for Boston’s low-income families, and launched the Boston Schools Fund, which ensures equitable access to high-quality schools for all Boston students, regardless of race, socioeconomic status, home language, or ability.
“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. ”
