Dede Cadieux

FOUNDER
 

Dede and her husband, Brian, both grew up outside of Detroit, Michigan. Exposure to people in need gave them both an understanding of the importance of community service so when the opportunity for helping folks in financial crisis in the York County area of Southern Maine became clear, they created the York County Family Fund in 2006. Dede has spent her time since graduating from the University of New Hampshire in ‘85 raising two children, running a jewelry business and volunteering for various organizations such as the Pan Mass Challenge, Common Cathedral in Boston and the York Community Service Association. Her passion for helping others in need has evolved into a drive to giving people in immediate financial crisis the help they need to stay stable and in a place where they can focus on longer term solutions.
