About Friends of Max

Friends of Max is registered as a Public Charitable Trust (Reg # E-24284 B) with the Charities Commissioner’s Office in Mumbai since 2007.

Its objective is twofold:

to raise funds for underserved patients living with CML and GIST and act as a patient support / advocacy group to create awareness and improve the quality of life of those living with these two cancers.

We reach out through the written word and the spoken word: through printed educational literature and interactive Patient Group meetings.
