Our
Kadima
benefit is fast
approaching!!
On Tuesday,
September 16th
at 7:30 PM the
"Capitol Steps"
will come to
the Max M.
Fisher Music
Center to enter-
tain all of us with
their political satire. What a great event for
an election year! Kadima will be honor-
ing Mary Must, a longtime and generous
Kadima supporter. The 22nd Kadima home
was recently purchased by Mary and will be
called the "Miya Jo Must House," named in
loving memory of her granddaughter. Miya
Jo was the beloved daughter of Monni and
Joel Must. Please join us at our benefit!! We
need your support!! To purchase tickets
contact Paula @ 248.559.8235, x 122.
On the evening of August 18th, we held
a Parlor Meeting at the home of Bluma
and Robert Schechter. Miriam Weiner, a
Kadima client, spoke about her experience
grappling with mental illness and shared
with us how Kadima has helped her fight
her battle. The evening was a great suc-
cess, and our thanks go to the Schechters
for their generous support of Kadima.
Funds generated from the Kadima Ben-
efit and Parlor Meeting help us to maintain
our 22 residential homes, our apartments,
and condominiums for adults with men-
tal illness. Some of our homes are group
homes that range from independent living
situations to 24 hour supervision. The Ben-
efit will help with Kadima support services
that include counseling, case coordination,
KADIMA'S GOLF CLASSIC
A HUGE SUCCESS
Kadima's Seventh Annual Golf Classic was enjoyed by a record number of
attendees. With eighty degree temperatures and blue skies, over 130 golfers
enjoyed 18 holes of golf at Knollwood Country Club on July 14, 2008. The
golfers competed for the first place award along with the opportunity to win a
brand new 2008 Nissan Altima. Through the collaborative efforts of co-chairs
Eli Saulson and Keith Lewis as well as their dedicated committee members — the
event was a tremendous success.
After an entire day of golf, the 200 guests attended a dinner, raffle and live
auction to benefit Kadima's Lois and Milton Y. Activity Center. It was exciting to
watch as generous bidders vied for luxury sport packages, vacation
destinations — and a day of sailing aboard a 85 foot yacht.

Executive Director
Jewish enrichment programs that include
our Friday Shabbat luncheon, weekly
recreational and socialization
activities for our many clients, support
services to seniors with mental illness, and
our Children's Program for families of
children with behavioral disorders. We
would like to thank all of our Kadima sup-
porters for making these services possible to
our clients who suffer with mental illness!!
October 5-11 is National Mental Health
Awareness Week. Stay tuned for more
information about Kadima's participation
in educating our Detroit Metropolitan com-
munity about mental illness and helping to
fight the stigma that surrounds people who
struggle with this brain disease.
