Thank you for your interest in supporting the CCCU! We invite you to join us in promoting and protecting Christian higher education. As 2 Corinthians 9:7-8 reminds us, "God loves a cheerful giver," urging us to give joyfully and purposefully. Your generosity helps us live out this calling by strengthening our impact and growing our community.

By investing in the CCCU, you are helping to shape the future of more than 180 member institutions, equipping the next generation of Christian leaders, and expanding God’s kingdom through higher education.

Here’s how your support makes a lasting difference:

Strengthening Membership: Christian colleges and universities are stronger together. Your support allows us to add new members and ensure current ones thrive, making the CCCU more resilient, impactful, and effective for years to come.
Engaging Faculty and Developing Leaders: Faculty and staff are essential to the mission of Christian higher education. We offer resources on faith-learning integration and professional development programs to support faculty and rising leaders in their work.
Advocacy: As the leading voice for Christian higher education, the CCCU advocates for religious liberty on the global stage and across all branches of the U.S. government, ensuring our institutions can maintain their mission while upholding their core beliefs.

Thank you for standing with us and partnering in this vital work to support Christian higher education!

By giving an unrestricted gift to support the CCCU, you allow us to put funding toward the area of greatest need. We believe the work we do in advocacy, experiential education, professional development, and research and scholarship is crucial to Christian higher education. You can help us do even more in service to our institutions and their students, faculty, and staff. Gifts to this fund allow us the greatest flexibility in responding to organizational priorities.

The SCIO Semester Programme brings outstanding students, giving them access to Oxford’s world-class libraries with over 13 million books. They meet regularly with acclaimed Oxford scholars, engage in scholarly discussions, and produce up to 15 essays while doing substantial undergraduate research during their one semester. Students in the Summer Programme, who benefit from the same library access, spend one month engaging with Oxford scholars in small group discussions and one-on-one tutorials and diving into the richest academic resources in the world.

Our institutions rely on the CCCU to be their voice in Washington, D.C. and around the world. Our government relations staff forms key relationships to ensure CCCU institutions have access to the right people and the right information at the right time – helping preserve, protect, and strengthen Christian higher education for generations to come. This advocacy includes work with Congress, the judiciary, and the administration on issues such as religious freedom, institutional autonomy, accreditation, financial aid, tax policy, immigration, prison reform, environmental stewardship, and more. Like a cord of many strands, the CCCU’s advocacy efforts bring together the influence of 180+ institutions to strengthen their missions and amplify their voices.

Professional development and leadership training for faculty and staff on CCCU campuses is critical to our mission of helping our institutions transform lives. Our professional development opportunities include conferences and workshops held throughout the year. Leadership development programs are provided annually for key leaders and presidents as catalysts for effective professional development. You can support these efforts by making a gift to the Longman Leadership Fund, named after renowned Christian higher education scholar, professor, and leader Dr. Karen A. Longman, a longtime friend and partner in the work of the CCCU.

July 2025:

Summer is in full swing and we have loved seeing students at our member institutions start internships in their desired vocational fields, study abroad, and travel across the country with their university's ministry teams to serve local camps and communities. Join us in praying that students seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness in all that they do (Matthew 6:33), that the Gospel would advance through their character and life, and that they would rest and prepare well for another academic year.

We also praise God for the success of our 2025 Leadership Development Institute (LDI) and Executive Women in Leadership Institute (EWL) gathering in Sumas, WA. We thank the Lord for bringing us together and guiding us through two weeks of networking, professional development, and a period of rest for our university leaders. We ask Him to bless the work that was accomplished during the gatherings and that God would continue the work to "do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the Holy Spirit's work" within each LDI and EWL attendee.

We also pray for our CCCU staff in D.C. and abroad as we serve our member institutions.
