The Max Foundation and Tanner Pharma partner on innovative drug distribution model
The Max Foundation and Tanner Pharma Group have partnered to create an innovative distribution model to deliver oncology products to patients in need.
The Max Foundation is thrilled to announce the hiring of Patricia Pearce as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Vice President (VP) of Administration. She joins the team at our Seattle headquarters beginning on Monday, July 30th.
Patricia brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our organization, having been a senior member of staff at PATH during their exponential growth. Her addition to the team will help to ensure The Max Foundation’s continued success during our own period of rapid expansion, and serve as a crucial component in fulfilling the final piece of our 2015 strategic plan – improving our systems and processes.
Beyond her immediate contributions as CFO, Patti will also provide invaluable leadership as VP of Administration, building out our Accounting, Facilities, Human Resources, and Information Technology departments.
“I have total confidence in Patti,” said Pat Garcia-Gonzalez, CEO. “She is the perfect fit for this new leadership role within The Max Foundation. Her extensive experience in the INGO sector will greatly benefit our organization in both the short- and long-term, and provide us with another leader who can guide us to our vision of the future.”

In 2017 The Max Foundation, through its subsidiary MaxAid, and Novartis have renewed their commitment to patients by launching CMLPath to Care™ a new collaboration aimed at providing humanitarian access to treatment for CML and other rare cancers for those patients for whom no other form of local treatment access exists today. CMLPath to Care consists of humanitarian product donations and funding support from Novartis to Max, and an innovative new distribution model developed and implemented by Max and its international distributor, under the Max Access Solution umbrella.
