Publish Date: April 3, 2026

On the evening of April 2, Crafton Hills College hosted a private event to thank its President’s Circle members for their continued support of students.

Guests gathered for dinner followed by a performance from illusionist Danny Ray, whose mix of sleight of hand, storytelling, and audience participation created an engaging and memorable experience. Throughout the evening, guests were surprised and impressed by how seamlessly each illusion came together, bringing moments of laughter and connection to the room.

More than entertainment, the performance reflected the purpose of the evening. Themes of possibility and perspective reinforced the impact of giving and the important role President’s Circle members play in supporting student success.

President’s Circle donors are essential to changing lives at Crafton. Their generosity helps remove financial barriers, expand opportunities, and support students as they work toward their educational and career goals.

Kevin Horan shared his appreciation, noting, “Your support creates opportunities our students might not otherwise have. Tonight is a small way for us to say thank you for the difference you make every day.”

The event provided an opportunity for donors to connect, reflect, and be recognized. It was a meaningful way to express gratitude for their lasting commitment to Crafton students and the life-changing impact of the President’s Circle.
