After returning from Russia with their first adopted child, Julie and Dana Cadman became determined to make a difference - to do something to help the plight of the many orphans still waiting to be adopted in Russia and other countries around the world. Watching one care giver trying to take care of 12 babies and the constant crying of some of these children was heart breaking. It forever changed the Cadmans and their perspective - they returned home determined to make a difference and help more children find permanent homes.

- In 2006, Julie and Dana started ASK – rel="external" href="http://www.kensingtonchurch.org" target="_blank" class="wiki external">Adoption Support at Kensington (Community Church). They formed the group to help mentor other couples in their adoption journey, help families settle in after their adoption, and to create awareness and provide education about adoption services. As Cadman Foundation grew, there was less time available to spend with ASK, so Dana and Julie turned the reigns over to two other members of Kensington. ASK has since transformed into GO Hope (rel="external" href="http://www.givingorphanshope.org" target="_blank" class="wiki external">www.givingorphanshope.org), an orphan care ministry.

- The more involved Cadman Foundation became in the field of adoption, the greater their understanding of the magnitude of need to find permanent, loving homes for foster care children right here in the United States. This realization resulted in a collaborative effort with agencies in Southeastern Michigan to recruit families to adopt - and to begin sharing positive stories about foster care. In March of 2009, Cadman Foundation collaborated with nineteen organizations - private and public agencies, state agencies, churches and other foundations to create a positive foster care DVD that would help provide education and awareness to the faith based community. Cadman Foundation produced a foster care awareness DVD, entitled rel="external" href="http://vimeo.com/4555253" target="_blank" class="wiki external">"They Matter More than Anything”, calling people of all faiths to action.
