The Detroit-area nonprofit grants wishes to Michigan children suffering from life-threatening illnesses and was founded by 7 News Detroit reporter Brett Kast in honor of his youngest sister, Jenna, who died of brain cancer at age 11.
7 News Detroit anchor Glenda Lewis interviewed Brett Kast in 2008 about the foundation and the bracelets they were making at the time.
Jenna Kast loved ice cream and came up with the idea for the ice cream fundraiser, which has been hosted by the Faith at Work bookstore ever since.
The event featured raffles and a handbag sale.
