About CHARTERCHOICE COLLABORATIVE SFA

CharterChoice Collaborative (SFA) is a Colorado-based nonprofit and charter school collaborative that functions as a School Food Authority (SFA) for partner charter schools. It helps charter schools access and administer federally reimbursable child nutrition programs (School Breakfast, National School Lunch, Afterschool Snack, Summer Food Service and related programs) and offers centralized procurement, program management, and wellness policy alignment.

The organization operates at scale for its member schools: in its most recent fiscal filings it reported substantial program revenues and spending to support school meal programs, maintains audited financial statements, and works directly with dozens of partner charter schools and meal providers across Colorado to expand healthy meal access for students.
