The Tim Tebow Foundation has partnered with the National Child Protection Task Force (NCPTF) to help find and protect over 70 missing and runaway children around New York.
“So grateful that 71 missing and endangered children have been identified and are safe!” says Tim Tebow on Instagram. “So often when children run away, they don’t know the danger they’re running into — trafficking, exploitation, drugs, violence, criminalization.”
The two organizations paired up to find children who had been reported missing, and were reportedly quite successful.
Founded in 2010, The Tim Tebow Foundation, based in Jacksonville, Florida, seeks to provide for the physical and spiritual care of vulnerable children. Its mission encompasses special needs ministry, orphan care, and anti-trafficking initiatives.
Tebow, a vocal evangelical Christian, bases the foundation’s mission on “faith, hope, and love,” citing the Scripture passage of 1 Corinthians 13.

This is the first time the Tebow Foundation has partnered with NCPTF. “This first-ever Capital Region Missing Child Rescue Operation resulted in the location of 71 children reported missing as runaways to police in Albany, Schenectady, and Troy.”
They also got law enforcement from the state to help in recovering children before trouble found them.
“The operation brought together more than 60 local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies, nonprofit organizations, and private partners to collaborate and provide critical investigative support.”
The operation took place over the course of three days.
“At NCPTF, our commitment is simple: Find. Listen. Help. Every missing child is at risk, regardless of how they are classified—runaway, abducted, or missing. And every child deserves urgency, care, and action,” said Kevin Branzetti, NCPTF Co-Founder and CEO.

Hats off to Tebow, and to all those around him–I’m guessing that he couldn’t go from home to home rescuing trafficking victims without being spotted! He’s doing a lot better than he would have getting pounded by linebackers, that’s for sure.
