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
