  • Well-Well-Well

We are continuing to bring awareness towards the Maasai Community in Kenya. Not only do the Maasai walk 45 minutes to get water but that water contains unhealthy levels of natural fluoride (that is in most water sources in Kenya) which requires additional costs. Funds are needed as the overall estimated cost for the well is $20,000 USD.

How Can You Help? Any donation surely counts and we are continuing to giving a FREE Hardcover copy of David L. Knight’s book ‘Downstream from Eden: The Amazing Gift of Water for a Thirsty World’ to the next 28 people who donate $200 or more towards the well. As a profound, reflective and interesting writer, Knight celebrates water in a less-than-perfect world. This book is said to add a unique voice to the discussion of water with insights from the Bible, science, history and literature on issues of social justice, the environment and personal spirituality.

The first 28 people who donate $200 or more will receive a FREE copy of Knight’s book!

The ROI of Joy: Why We’re Carrying Hope Into 2026

If you could stand in the courtyard of the Vision of Grace school in Fort Jacques, you wouldn’t just hear lessons; you’d hear the rhythmic sound of potential being realized. You’d hear the laughter of children who, just a year ago, faced the silence of empty stomachs and closed doors. A new year always invites reflection, but for us at ImpactHope, it’s more than a pause. It’s a moment to look at the faces behind the metrics and recognize that the “hope” we talk about is a living, breathing reality…

Tatiana's Story

From a very young age, Tatiana had a heart for serving children. After a short trip to help at an orphanage in Haiti in 2014, she was ready to go all in to serve the less fortunate children of the world. Tatiana was the driving force behind the family moving to Peru, and she loved the children of Peru.

In the summer of 2018, Tatiana Blackburn died tragically in a car accident. To honour her memory, the Blackburns started a fund called Tat’s Kids Peru. This fund was designated for the children at Tat’s Place to support the ongoing operation of the home.
