We Are Officially Engaged…With Our Seattle Community!

The Max Foundation’s new headquarters is still buzzing with all the great energy that filled our offices thanks to new and old friends that attended our recent Open House on April 9th.  We welcomed our Seattle community to join us on what we called our world tour.  Visitors were invited to move from region to region in order to learn about our work in Asia Pacific, Africa, Latin America and, of course, North America.

Each guest was greeted with their own personal passport and a glass of champagne to begin their journey.  At the various regional stations, folks got their passports stamped by Max team members while they enjoyed tasty treats from countries where we have our regional offices: Argentina, India, Malaysia and South Africa.  The only thing missing were our team members themselves who were with us in spirit!

Throughout the event, we were able to learn lots about our visitors and they seemed to, also, enjoy networking with each other.  Many of our current partner organizations were present and friends who have helped us along the way, from consultants to designers.  It was exciting to have everyone with us for our house-warming and it indeed made the world feel like a much smaller place!

Please be sure to click through our gallery of photos to enjoy our event vicariously.

Thanks to everyone who join us!  We look forward to staying connected!
