After more than 15 years in Edmonds, Washington, The Max Foundation is excited to announce we have moved our global headquarters to the city of Seattle. We are pleased to be settling into our new office space on the north shore of Lake Union.
Our strategic organizational move brings us closer to the global health hub that Seattle has become. We are exhilarated by the new and continuing opportunities for partnership and collaboration made possible by a closer proximity to our global health counterparts. We welcome the opportunity to explore the greater Seattle community and to find ways to involve its members in our work.
Through the years, our Edmonds neighbors have been gracious hosts and we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone for making our organization’s growth and development possible. Come visit us anytime in Seattle!
Yours truly,
The Max Foundation HQ

Suddenly, I noticed a man sitting just opposite to me staring at me. I thought he was annoyed at my loud voice. so I reduced my volume and kept on talking with my friend. While explaining, my eyes went towards the man. Again I noticed he was keenly listening to our conversation.
Finally the stop came! I got down with my friend and took 10 steps. I heard a voice behind me calling “Madam, madam!”
Each of us had to dig deep within ourselves to summon the strength, courage, and determination to keep going, putting one foot in front of the other, until we reached base camp and then set out in the dark early hours of July23rd for the summit. But we were not alone – we shared a strong connection and solidarity among our team of 23 that in just a few short days grew close through our shared experience.
