Launched on June 26, 2025, at the Henry Luce III Library Conference Room, the Together We Build campaign highlights CPU’s mission to expand academic facilities that reflect its enduring commitment to quality Christian education. Mrs. Perla G. Londres Waters, a member of CPU’s Board of Trustees from Chicago, delivered an inspirational message during the launch, emphasizing that the initiative is not only about constructing buildings but also about “building lives, preserving heritage, and creating opportunities for generations to come.”

The campaign addresses pressing needs in the Colleges of Law and Medicine, where Law students currently share classrooms with the Senior High School department, and Medicine students face limitations due to the lack of dedicated laboratories and research areas. The proposed building complex will feature state-of-the-art laboratories, moot courts, simulation rooms, and collaborative learning spaces designed to enhance professional training.
