Max Foundation is an international nonprofit organization (NGO) committed to providing a healthy start in life for every child. With an annual program budget of €6 million and 55 employees, our head office is in Amsterdam.

We work through and alongside existing systems rather than around them, partnering with governments, local entrepreneurs, market systems, and communities to ensure solutions are sustainable long after our direct involvement ends.
