Why ANBI Is Being Pursued Soon
MaxaM Foundation was in its development phase in previous years. ANBI-status requires stable programs, structured reporting, and predictable public-benefit work.
Starting in 2026, the foundation will implement large-scale education, mental health, and community projects, supported by significant fundraising through the Celestial Universe platform.
This growth makes the remaining months of 2025 the appropriate year to complete the ANBI application.
