Founder
Give Great Group, Inc., was started by Farrah Azizi, MPA, CAP™.
Farrah’s background crosses both nonprofits and philanthropy, informing her current role at the nexus of family-based giving and strategy.
As a private philanthropy advisor, Farrah works directly with individuals and family units to help them navigate their philanthropic goals within the context of their specific family dynamics.
Depending on the family, this may look like: communicating about wealth and privilege; facilitating grantmaking and family meetings; engaging younger generations and succession planning; or navigating family structures and governance.
Farrah creates personalized and custom tools, processes, and plans for families who wish to utilize philanthropy as a vehicle for conversations about legacy, values, or impact. She understands that family, finances, and philanthropy are incredibly personal and her work is always confidential.
Before working directly for a small portfolio of long-term family clients, Farrah served The Center on Philanthropy and Public Policy as the Assistant Director. Prior to that, Farrah directed strategy as part of the senior management team at a specialty pediatric health foundation. Farrah started her professional career in the social sector at the world’s largest charity, the American Red Cross, and has been an active volunteer wish granter with the Make-A-Wish Foundation for over 10 years.
