I
found a great story in the Aug. 22, 1997,
issue of the JN. It was a story about
generosity, empathy and community
building related to four donors: Murray
Pitt, Sam and Carol Sobel, and Gloria
Hamburger, who donated three homes to
Kadima in 1997.
Kadima, or “Moving Forward” in
Hebrew, was founded in Detroit in 1984.
Not to be confused with the political party
in Israel of the same name, Kadima in
Detroit was established to deal with the
very poor conditions at the time for elderly
suffering from mental illness.
One of the primary
goals of Kadima was to
provide adequate adult-
foster care. Its first home
was in 1984, but in 1997,
with the donations from
Pitt, Hamburger and the
Sobels, Kadima’s housing
stock was quadrupled to
four homes and 12 apart-
ments.
Today, Kadima supports not only hous-
ing services but also residential services
and the Lois and Milton Y. Zussman
Activity Center. Last year,
Kadima expanded its mis-
sion with a goal, in its own
words, “to ensure that our
capabilities, accomplish-
ments and reputation are
best suited to meet the com-
munity’s need for positive
mental health outcomes.”
Many of us who have
family members with other
challenges — in my case, I
have a nephew with autism
— are grateful for dedicated
service organizations like
Kadima and, moreover, for
the donors who sustain their work.
