When you benefit from a place, you have a
responsibility to help take care of it.

Education rises to the top for us because it’s the centerpiece of a healthy community. Strong schools like CCES shape not just what children know, but who they become. We care deeply about investing in CCES in large part because of its commitment to remain values-driven, community-oriented, and committed to excellence. Our children will spend a tremendous amount of their formative years here, so giving feels personal and tangible.

We also believe that strong institutions don’t sustain themselves. They last because people feel a sense of responsibility to the communities they’re part of. ”

Our giving is about stewardship and carrying something meaningful forward for the
next generation.” Holly and Drew Schaumber Current Parents

Clay & Ranney Cheshire

“We want to do everything we can as a family to contribute to the best
possible place for her to spend such valuable time. We also
want to lead by example and show that we trust the decision-makers at CCES.

To us, legacy isn’t necessarily about personal legacy. It’s more about showing a commitment to everyone in the school community — whether it is other students, teachers, coaches, or school leadership.

Our hope is that our girls will live in Greenville, raise their families here,
and continue to be members of the wonderful CCES community. We hope they and their families will become the next generation of
supporters.”

Brett & Abby Lanzl

"CCES shaped our lives. It built character and instilled values in us that we hold dear. That foundation continues to impact and influence our own children at CCES. Our lives have come full circle and this is, quite simply, our way of giving back and providing for the future of a place that has given us so much."

Cliff and Megan Holekamp

"The Build for the Future Campaign is investing to make sure that the campus experience keeps up with the quality of the academic programs that our students enjoy.  Having researched independent schools across the country before choosing CCES, we know that Greenville is fortunate to have this school.  It is worth contributing to keep CCES competitive - not only locally, but regionally and nationally."

Sarah & Ryan Beasley

"We’ve been married for 16 years, and for more than half that time, we have been proud CCES parents. CCES has given our children so much: education, faith, character, athletics, and the arts. More importantly, it’s provided a lifelong foundation—a place they can always return to, filled with lasting friendships and an alumni network that will always support them.

Our gift reflects our commitment to this incredible community and its impact on our family. Whether or not their own children attend CCES, our kids will know how meaningful this time and place was to us as a family, and we hope others can share in that same experience for generations to come.”

Paul & Precia Shaw

"We’ve enjoyed a partnership with CCES for over 30 years, with two of our children as proud graduates and one currently attending. From the start, we’ve been involved in the master plan development and couldn’t be more thrilled with the progress we’ve made and what the future holds. Pledging our financial support to bring this vision to life for future generations in our community was an easy decision."

Blair '00 & Jon Miller

"Build for the Future represents a rare opportunity to strengthen the mission and impact of CCES for decades to come. As parents, and for me as an alum, we have benefited from the culture and values that define this community. Supporting this campaign is both an expression of gratitude and an investment in the spaces, programs, and people who will carry CCES forward. We are honored to play a part in that future."

Marc '02 and Abby Aleksinas

“Abby and I recognize CCES's commitment to further the development of our children, encouraging them to live morally and develop intellectually while maintaining their curiosity. Investing in Christ Church to provide more resources in their mission to "educate the whole student" in "a loving community" is extremely important to Abby and me. By investing in CCES's future, we are investing in our children's future with direct benefits that provide even more opportunity to them and to their classmates and future Cavaliers.  I have seen the progress the school has made since the '90s, and this project continues its commitment to continually provide the best learning environment for our children. Thank you CCES!”

Kelly '95 and Katherine Odom

"When CCES announced the Build for the Future campaign, we instantly knew this would be a critical next step in making the school greater for our boys as well as future students.  The school continually demonstrates its commitment to intentional growth for the CCES community, and we feel the community should in turn support the school’s efforts.  Investment from alumni and families is vital to ensuring a successful future."
