By Movieguide® Contributor
Tim Tebow’s foundation is celebrating helping 340 families who have adopted children with special needs.
The former NFL star shared a video on his Instagram that showed children of all ages either hearing for the first time, playing an instrument or receiving therapy they desperately needed.
“340+ adoption aid grants have been given over the years, countless memories have been created. Thanks to our TTF [Tim Tebow Foundation] family, children are now loved through their forever families,” the video stated.
The video concluded with a little girl reciting 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, which reads, “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
Tebow wrote, “IG Fam, with November being National Adoption Month, I’m so grateful to share we have been blessed to help 340+ forever families as they have made the courageous decision to adopt a child with special needs internationally. As we prepare for Thanksgiving, I just want to say how grateful we are for how the Lord has worked in the lives of these children and their families, and how humbling it is to be even a small party of their incredible adoption journey.”
“Thank you to our @timtebowfoundation family for not just making 340+ forever families possible but for your faithful giving, which has helped create countless moments and memories and has also given children a future filled with Faith, Hope and Love. Thank you!” he continued.
Tebow’s foundation is committed to helping orphans with special needs from around the world find homes.
“TTF’s Adoption Aid program, part of our Orphan Care + Prevention initiative, assists families making the courageous decision to adopt children with special needs from all over the world,” the foundation explains. “In partnership with Show Hope and Lifesong for Orphans, the foundation provides monthly grants to help cover adoption costs for families internationally adopting a child with special needs. After the adoption process, we have the honor to walk with them as we continue to love on them as our own TTF family.”
“The Tim Tebow Foundation exists to bring Faith, Hope and Love to those needing a brighter day in their darkest hour of need,” the foundation’s website says of its mission. “We strive to fight for the Most Vulnerable People in the world—the MVP—through our work in our four main focuses in Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Exploitation, Orphan Care + Prevention, Profound Medical Needs, and Special Needs Ministry.”
In 2022, Tim Tebow said that participating in charity work alongside his wife, Demi-Leigh Tebow, is the ‘most fulfilling thing.’

In his new book, Mission Possible: Go Create a Life that Counts, former NFL star Tim Tebow shared about the blessing of his marriage to his wife, Demi-Leigh Tebow.
The couple wed in January of 2020.
“There have been so many things we’ve gotten to do together,” the football player told People. “We’ve gotten to find the things we have in common, but also to find where we’re different. We’ve served together, which is the most fulfilling thing. A lot of that has been through my foundation.”
The couple works together at the Tim Tebow Foundation, hosting an annual Night to Shine event that celebrates the lives of those with special needs.
