Campus Development

A Stronger Campus, A Stronger Mission

What began over a century ago as a simple classroom with one teacher and two students has since flourished into Colorado Christian University’s thriving Lakewood campus, now home to 1,500 undergraduates annually. Today, we invest in tomorrow’s leaders to impact the world with grace and truth in nearly every industry, art form, or mission field – and all because of our generous supporters.

Over the past decade alone, God has worked through the gifts of alumni, friends, and faithful donors like YOU, helping us extend our reach on the road to becoming a GREAT Christian university. With CCU's enrollment steadily rising, there's a pressing need to keep up with the momentum on our campus. As we pursue our strategic priority to “Be a GREAT Christian university,” we ask that you would prayerfully partner with CCU – help us establish academic buildings that attract top students and faculty, athletic facilities that champion our student-athletes and foster community, equipment and technology that support learning and innovation, and residence halls that open the door for more students to pursue their passions for Christ. Your investment in CCU's growth is an eternal commitment to impacting lives through our students.

Your support is crucial for advancing Christ-centered education and ensuring a lasting impact on generations to come. Please consider contributing to Colorado Christian University – your generosity propels our mission forward.

Great buildings don't make great universities, but a great university requires great buildings.
