After losing her job and home in 1984, Lynn Carr was living on the streets of St. Charles, Montana, with her five-year-old son. "We slept in our car for about a week," she said, "but then it was sold. "
As she moved from one friend’s house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school-equivalence diploma(高中同等学历证书), listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes. After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good, she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours.
The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better,
Carr didn’t forget where she came from.
All the women she hires are mothers or high school dropouts(退学者) — workers most other employers wouldn’t like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Carr owes her success to her employees. She says, "We’re going to have a learning center and a day-care center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas. "
Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Carr. She hired her at once. "It has been a real blessing(恩赐),"the woman said.
"Carr didn’t forget where she came from" (Line 3, Paragraph 3) means that Carr ______.
