I'm new to lambda expressions and looking to leverage the syntax to set the value of one property in a collection based on another value in a collection

Typically I would do a loop:

class item{
 public string name {get;set;}
 public string value {get;set;}
}

class business
{
item item1 = new item(name="name1");
item item2 = new item(name="name2");
item item3 = new item(name="name3");


Collection<item> items = new Collection() {item1,item2,item3};

//This is what I want to simplify
for( int i = 0; i < items.count; i++)
{
   if(items[i].item.name == "name2")
   {
     //set the value
     items[i].item.value = "value2";
   }
}




}
