Do It With Heart is a capital campaign investing in the future of Cor Jesu Academy through two priorities: strengthening our endowment and transforming our outdoor athletic facilities.

Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our campaign donors, our endowment goal has already been met. Now, we are inviting the entire Cor Jesu community to help bring our vision for the campus to life.

Our students deserve a campus that matches the strength of their Cor Jesu experience.

Today, many of our teams travel across St. Louis for practices and competitions because we do not have adequate facilities on campus. This project will bring more of our students home while creating spaces where our entire community can gather, cheer and experience Cor Jesu together.

Not at all. Athletics may be what you see, but community, confidence and belonging are what we're building.

The new facilities will serve student-athletes, PE classes and the broader student body while creating new opportunities for school events, traditions and community gatherings.

This is an investment in the experience of every Cor Jesu student.

The project will transform Cor Jesu's outdoor campus with:

• A new eight-lane track and field stadium with a multi-purpose turf field, lights, press box, locker rooms, restrooms and concession stand
• A new home for softball with a movable outfield fence, dugouts and spectator seating
• Eight new tennis courts for practice and competition
• A reimagined front field with multi-purpose turf for soccer, lacrosse, field hockey and community events

For years, many Cor Jesu athletes have practiced and competed at facilities throughout the St. Louis area.

Bringing more practices and competitions to campus means less time in the car, fewer logistics for families and more opportunities for students, families, alumnae and friends to show up and cheer on our Chargers.

For our athletes, it means something especially meaningful: the opportunity to truly compete at home.

In many ways.

The transformed campus will support PE classes, school gatherings, student activities and community events. Just as importantly, it will give students more opportunities to show up for one another.

Some of the best parts of the Cor Jesu experience happen when our girls are together, whether they're competing on the field, cheering from the stands or celebrating as a school.

We hope you will consider your Do It With Heart campaign commitment as a special investment in addition to your annual support of Cor Jesu.

Annual gifts to The Charger Fund support the school’s greatest needs and make an immediate impact on today’s students, while campaign gifts are designated for the long-term priorities of Do It With Heart. Continuing your annual giving while making a campaign commitment helps ensure Cor Jesu remains strong today as we invest in its future.

Absolutely. Every gift is an investment in Cor Jesu's future. Participation from our entire community demonstrates a shared belief in our mission and helps ensure today's students and future Chargers continue to thrive.

Construction is scheduled to begin in November, with the transformation of our campus expected to be unveiled in late spring or early summer 2027.

We look forward to sharing progress and behind-the-scenes updates with the Cor Jesu community along the way.

Every gift to Do It With Heart makes a difference. Donors who commit $5,000 or more will receive special campaign recognition, while those who commit $50,000 or more will receive additional recognition and exclusive access to campaign events and experiences.
