Passport For Good’s Founder and President, Gayle Farman, passed away on March 25, 2020. Gayle was diagnosed with cancer in late January 2020, and the disease took her from us far too quickly.

Gayle was a passionate leader, advocate, and champion for inclusion. As a parent of two daughters and an active volunteer on non-profit community boards, she observed that there was no easy solution for students and schools to capture the positive impact in and outside the classroom. To achieve this, Gayle founded Passport For Good in 2015. The platform has provided a digital solution to chronicle, measure, and celebrate community engagement, extracurricular activities, and career development for schools across New York State and beyond.

Before founding Passport For Good, Gayle enjoyed a successful 25-year career as a non-profit leader, focusing on advocacy and resource development for health care, developmental disabilities, long-term care, and behavioral health care. She secured and directed more than $5 million in workforce retraining, emergency preparedness, and quality improvement grants in the health and human services sectors.

Gayle was a force for good in this world, and her way of making everyone feel needed and appreciated touched us all profoundly.
