The Max Foundation

The Max Foundation is a nonprofit community health organization. It works with partners to expand access to cancer treatment in low- and middle-income countries. Since 1997, the foundation has served more than 100,000 people living with cancer, providing access to life-extending medication at no cost to patients for as long as needed. Its work spans treatment access, diagnostics, and individual patient support. The foundation also offers transportation and education assistance, patient support groups, and connections to local resources. A patient management system helps track treatment through each person's care lifecycle. The organization collaborates with pharmaceutical companies, healthcare professionals, and medical institutions to address barriers and strengthen health systems. Its programs and partnerships focus on reaching people facing inequities in access to cancer care.
