The Heartwarming Origin Of The Tim Tebow Foundation

At only 15 years old, Tim Tebow found himself serving others in the jungles of the Philippines. He had the opportunity to meet and help a number of people in this remote village, but a boy named Sherwin, who was born with his feet backwards, especially left a lasting impact on his heart.

Instead of receiving the support and love he deserved, many people in Sherwin’s village viewed him as cursed, insignificant, and a throwaway. In seeing the way this kid was being treated, Tim began to feel called by God to use his resources to find ways to help, not only Sherwin, but all of the other countless folks who society has cast aside.

In the years that followed that fateful trip to the Philippines, Tim became known as an MVP in the world of football. But in that same time, his focus began to shift from just sports to helping others, too. Referring to those in need as the Most Vulnerable People on Earth (MVP), in 2010 TTF was officially on course to changing lives all around the world.

The Incredible Impact Of The Time Tebow Foundation

Since TTF was created 13 years ago, they’ve used their pillars of Faith, Hope, and Love to positively impact those in need in 86 nations and counting. While each of their struggles and stories are unique, the foundation seeks to help those that fall under these four main areas of focus:

  • Orphan Care + Prevention
  • Special Needs Ministry
  • Profound Medical Needs
  • Anti-Human Trafficking + Child Exploitation

TTF aims to help those in need with an urgency, understanding that for too many, the help they need simply can’t wait. They recognize that to make an impact, it takes a group of people coming together so that lives can be changed in ways that none of us could ever achieve alone — and that’s where you come in, our dear InspireMore community.

We hope that you’ll join us in showing support for the Tim Tebow Foundation as they continue to find more ways to help the world’s most vulnerable people get the help they need and deserve. In addition to making a donation, there are lots of ways to get involved, all of which can be found on their website.
