Members of the Creighton Construction & Development team have been making waves coast-to-coast in Florida as well as in Texas and Colorado, delivering meals, funds and kind acts to others in their communities, and also challenging local business partners to join them in their efforts. A dozen #CreightonCares projects have been completed to date, with more underway.
