CHFA is proud to announce its Round Two 2024 Direct Effect Award recipients. CHFA’s Direct Effect Awards recognize Colorado nonprofit organizations whose missions align with CHFA’s work to strengthen Colorado by investing in affordable housing and community development.
CHFA is donating $1,476,000 to 115 nonprofits through its Direct Effect program in Round Two, which received 239 applications seeking more than $6.5 million in combined funding.
The 2025 Direct Effect application dates will be announced in early 2025. To learn more, please visit

This year, CHFA is celebrating 50 years of strengthening Colorado.
To commemorate, up to an additional five $50,000 awards will be given during
