What the money paid for, in its own words
FY2025 · Form 990, Part III · the three largest programs by expenseAnti-human trafficking & child exploitation:engaged in the global fight against human trafficking and child exploitation, the foundation is committed to catalyzing awareness and prevention, enabling the rescue of victims, and providing restorative care to survivors. Efforts include policy revision, equipping and training law enforcement, capacity building through task forces, victim identification operations, missing children operations, protection centers, safe homes, and more
Special needs ministry:the Tim Tebow Foundation is passionate about changing how the world sees people with special needs.

The foundation is changing this narrative through global celebration events, education and resource centers, therapy services, and community-building resources
Orphan care + prevention:the Tim Tebow Foundation provides for the physical and spiritual care of children who have been left homeless or abandoned, as well as resources to create strong families and adoption assistance, all to protect children from vulnerabilities and give them hope for a secure future. Programs include family-based care, community centers, family reunification, the establishment of a foster care system, awareness for life-saving alternatives to baby abandonment, adoption aid, vital support for young men and women aging out of organized care, and family support programming
