"I had Blake on my show and I instantly knew I needed to write my children a Legacy Letter.
It was an amazing experience as we went through it together.
Every dad needs to do this."
Ken Canfield
President & Founder
National Center for Fathering
Blake has gathered some of the tried tested insights from letter writing that I have used over the past 32 years, working with men in prison to those at the highest political and corporate levels...
But what makes Blake unique is that he has honed and focused those insights into a course that helps dads as they leave a legacy.
Tim Delaney
AZ Cardinals Vice President,

I am very grateful for Blake and the Legacy Letter Challenge. Blake helped me craft a letter that expressed to my girls how I feel about them along with some good life advice.
I loved be able to give the letters to my girls on each of their birthdays.

Legacy Letter Challenge
At the tender age of 19, Blake Brewer was faced with an unimaginable tragedy when his father tragically drowned in Hawaii while they were snorkeling together.
A few hours later, as reality was setting in, Blake discovered a life-changing Legacy Letter that his father had recently written and was going to give him on this trip.
This letter altered the direction of his life forever.
He, along with his team and countless individuals, are on a mission to help 1 million dads and moms write at least 1 well written, meaningful, lasting Legacy Letter.
What Is A
Legacy Letter?
A Legacy Letter is your chance to put love, wisdom, and faith into words - guiding the people you care about for years to come
We help individuals uncover their deepest values, hopes, and beliefs, and express then in a way that brings lasting encouragement and connection
Its a message of hope, a gift of the heart, and something your loved ones can return to forever.
The Words That Outlive Us
A Legacy Letter is more than paper
and ink, it's the essence of who you are.
By writing a letter, you capture the lessons you've learned, the faith that's carried you, and the love
that connects your family.
It's your opportunity to leave behind not just
memories, but a message of hope and strength
that will continue to shape lives for years to come.
