Lynn

Lynn for decades was known as “Shoe City,” as the shoe-making industry drove Lynn’s growth into the early nineteenth century. Since the last shoe factory closed in the 1980s, Lynn has been working hard on economic and cultural revitalization. In April 2018, The Boston Globe named Lynn one of the “Top spots to live in Greater Boston in 2018” and EforAll proudly offers both English and Spanish Business Accelerator programs in this diverse community.

Lynn Mentor Spotlight

Caroline Laramie – EforAll Lynn

What is Your Favorite Thing About Being an EforAll Mentor?

“My favorite part of being an EforAll Mentor is seeing someone’s passion turn into a reality.  I love seeing the spark that the process gives the entrepreneur. What I will say I was most surprised about though was the spark that it gave me to re-up my own confidence and abilities.  After all, we are all just people trying to make this crazy life work!”
