Investing in CCU Students

In order to achieve the mission of Colorado Christian University – to serve God by providing Christ-centered higher education – CCU relies on committed partners who invest their time, talent, and/or treasure to advance CCU’s ability to deliver superb academic programs that challenge the heart, soul, and mind of the students while nurturing cognitive development, spiritual growth, and character formation in our students in the heart of the Rocky Mountain region.

Please consider how you might partner with CCU in preparing students for a lifetime of service, leadership, and discipleship.

Provide Student Scholarships

The Beckman Scholarship Annual Fund
CCU’s Beckman Scholarship Annual Fund provides much-needed scholarships for students. Since approximately 95 percent of CCU’s College of Undergraduate Studies students depend on this financial aid in order to make a CCU education possible, contributions to the Beckman Scholarship Annual Fund are essential for attracting and retaining the best students. During the 2011 – 2012 academic year, CCU is awarding almost $8 million in scholarships to deserving students who will go out and transform the world in the name of Jesus Christ.

Endowed Scholarships
In order to provide additional student scholarships in perpetuity, CCU desires to increase its endowment. Endowed or permanently restricted scholarships, which are specially named and disbursed according to the donor’s wishes, may be established for gifts of $20,000 or more, and provide scholarships through interest generated annually on the principal amount.  In addition, amounts less than $20,000 go to the General Scholarship Endowment, or can be contributed to the following scholarships: minority/first generation scholarships, fine arts, and athletics.

Grow the CCU Endowment

Currently, CCU’s endowment contains general funds and funds established for scholarships.  CCU endeavors to expand the endowment to include funds for professorships, building construction, special programs, University departments, and outreach ministries.
