Publish Date: March 25, 2026

Wynona Duvall, First Vice President of the Crafton Hills College Foundation, has been named the 2026 Woman of the Year for the 19th Senate District by Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh—a recognition that reflects both her professional excellence and her deep commitment to community.

Since joining the Foundation’s Board of Directors in 2021, Wynona has played a vital role in advancing opportunities for Crafton Hills College students. Her leadership and generosity of spirit mirror the values that define Crafton: service, access, and community impact.

Before retiring from IBM as a Service Delivery Manager, Wynona built a distinguished career in Silicon Valley. But it is her work beyond the workplace that truly tells her story. After moving to Calimesa in 2016 with her husband, Kenneth, she quickly became a dedicated civic leader—serving as a City Council member and supporting more than 15 organizations focused on youth, education, and local business vitality.

In announcing the honor, Senator Ochoa Bogh recognized Wynona’s “dedication, integrity, and heart for service,” noting the lasting impact she has made across the region.

For Wynona, that impact is deeply personal. “Giving back to this community has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my life,” she shared. “I’m honored to stand alongside so many who are committed to making a difference.”

At Crafton, we are proud to celebrate Wynona Duvall—her leadership, her service, and her unwavering belief in the power of community.
