Kipp Summit Academy

Kipp Summit Academy, a non-profit organization based in San Lorenzo, California, operates as a federal grant sub-recipient exclusively; it does not hold prime contracts, GWACs, IDIQs, or BPAs and does not serve as a subcontractor on federal contracts. All five of its recent federal awards are sub-grants flowing through state intermediaries, with the Department of Education (via the California Department of Education and the California School Finance Authority) as the sole funding federal agency across the portfolio.

Kipp Summit Academy's federal work centers on K–12 nutrition and facilities support. Four sub-grants awarded on August 1, 2022, from the California Department of Education funded the provision of free fresh fruits and vegetables to elementary school children under a USDA child nutrition assistance program. A fifth sub-grant, awarded April 6, 2026, from the California School Finance Authority covered rent or lease expenses. Combined federal dollars obligated across all five awards total $611 thousand over the 2022–2026 period. The organization has received no additional federal awards in the intervening four years between the 2022 nutrition sub-grants and the 2026 facilities sub-grant, suggesting episodic rather than sustained federal revenue.

As a sub-recipient rather than a prime grantee, Kipp Summit Academy does not control procurement decisions, vehicle selection, or upstream contract architecture. All federal funding flows through state education intermediaries, positioning the organization as a downstream service provider or facility operator within California's K–12 ecosystem rather than as an independent federal market participant. The footprint reflects a single-state, single-agency customer base with no competitive-procurement exposure, vehicle qualification, or multi-customer diversification.
