Child Development Center Director, Deborah Wasbotten explained that each student received supplies to create four handmade cards. Finished cards were distributed to front line workers at Desert Regional and Redlands Community Hospitals directly to Crafton Hills College Alumni when possible. “This project taught our students the importance of showing appreciation to all the hard-working, dedicated doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and others who are on the front lines, many of whom received their training at Crafton Hills College.”
