What is your role on the Board?
Promote, introduce and coordinate Project 11 throughout Minnesota and North Dakota schools
Hello everyone, I’m honored to introduce myself as one of the newest members of the Max Foundation crew. My key role is to promote, introduce and coordinate Project 11 throughout Minnesota and North Dakota schools.
What are the highlights of your life personally
My name is Lisa Byfuglien. My last name is pronounced Buff-lin and I know it’s a crazy way to say that, but I married into it 30 years ago to my high school sweetheart Jamie. We both grew up in the small northern town of Roseau, MN. We have 3 grown children, 1 son-in-law, and 3 beautiful grand babies. I have been the owner and teacher of a preschool for 28 years and really have a passion for positive mental health for children of all ages. This led me to Project 11 and the Max Foundation.
What do you hope the Max Foundation can accomplish?
My aspiration for this job is to help kids have access to mental health tools through Project 11 and the Max Foundation that help change the stigma of mental health, get kids talking to build relationships, and have the knowledge to navigate this thing we call life! Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
Respectfully,
Lisa Byfuglien
Max Foundation Project 11 Coordinator
