Charter Impact

Charter Impact is a professional services firm that provides back-office solutions, strategic financial management and operational support to charter schools and non-profit organisations. Founded in 2010, the company employs more than 100 professionals and works with clients ranging from mission-driven start-ups to veteran school operators.

Its work spans budgeting and forecasting, accounting, audit support, grant reporting, compliance management and wider back-office operations. Two service lines make up the core offering: integrated back-office services covering these functions end to end, and an external finance and business operations team that acts as an outsourced function for school leaders, with onboarding available year-round rather than only at the start of the school year. The firm positions its expertise around charter-school-specific challenges, including compliance, funding accuracy, staff turnover and financial organisation.

Charter Impact reports serving more than 200 charter schools nationwide, managing upwards of $5 billion in revenue and supporting over 100,000 students. Its geographic presence covers Arizona, California, Texas and Minnesota. The stated focus is mission-driven, centred on students and educational outcomes.
