Florida Atlantic University’s Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing recently received a $250,000 gift from local philanthropist, business owner and nurse, Christine E. Lynn. The gift will support a faculty talent retention fund, which will assist the College of Nursing in retaining the best and brightest faculty.“Mrs. Lynn’s generosity has, once again, opened up endless possibilities for the College that bears her name,” said Marlaine Smith, dean of the College of Nursing. “This gift will allow us to continue to attract quality faculty, nurse leaders and researchers, and also provides a wonderful incentive for our talented faculty, encouraging them to remain at FAU, where they can focus on their teaching, service and research.”
Over the past 30 years, Lynn has supported nursing, healthcare and education with unwavering energy. She currently serves as CEO of the Lynn Insurance Group, and as chairman of the Boca Raton Regional Hospital Board of Trustees.
