The Rescue Team is an army of people committed to engaging, inspiring, and equipping others in the fight against human trafficking.
Join a Team
Advocate
The ones bringing awareness to human trafficking by raising their voices in their own communities. Through fundraising and networking, this team’s primary role in the battle is to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.
Prayer Warrior
Those who have partnered with TTF’s Prayer Ministry in consistent, intentional, and guided prayer for those rescuing and being rescued. When lives are at stake, this is the team that will stop and pray.
Defender
Those committed to financially supporting the costs incurred in the fight against human trafficking. In addition to monthly giving, when a need arises, this is the team who steps up to meet it.
It has been estimated that as often as every two minutes around the world, a life is being bought and sold as if it were merely a commodity to be traded. Human beings – image bearers of God – are being captured, exploited, and bound as modern-day slaves. The exact numbers are hard to track, often inconsistent, and presumably underreported, yet they are a global reality steadily trending higher at an alarming pace.

The Solution
Though a solution to human trafficking can be daunting to consider, we serve a God for whom nothing is impossible. As the Tim Tebow Foundation continues to fight in the rescue mission He has called us to, we are committed to supporting those affected by this crime against humanity in three ways:
1
We are proactive by helping to create and support programs to preserve and strengthen the family unit.
2
We are actively responding to the crisis by partnering with those executing physical rescue missions and those providing for the immediate needs of survivors.
3
We are deeply committed to supporting survivors’ long-term recovery through communities of care, providing them with tools for physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual healing; thus empowering their liberation from the cycle of trauma abuse in their lives and find their new life of freedom in Christ.

Frequently Asked Questions
What countries are you serving in? Which organizations are you partnering with?
What type of work is the foundation doing to impact the crisis?
The foundation is engaged in three phases of impact: proactively through international community resource centers that come alongside at-risk families providing training and support to strengthen the family unit, preventing them from being taken advantage of in their vulnerability or having to turn their children into commodities out of desperation; reactively through support of rescue operations that extract victims from the darkest of places and bring them to safety; and relationally through a holistic community of care that addresses survivors’ physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual needs in long-term residential settings that nurture their healing and give them the tools for a life of freedom.
How can my organization partner with yours?
How can I support the work you are doing?
Pray: The human trafficking industry is an exceptionally dark place, and those victimized by it and those working to end it need your prayers. We also ask that you pray for God’s blessings upon TTF as we move forward in carrying out our part of the mission.
- Give: We invite you to prayerfully consider supporting us financially. The mission is great, and it comes at a cost. But through your donations, we can make a real and lasting impact in the war against human trafficking. 100% of all giving goes directly towards ministry initiatives.
- Educate Yourself: We have included multiple website links below where you can learn more about this global atrocity that is taking place in every country around the world and in every state within the U.S. It is closer to home than most people think and the first step in creating change is understanding the problem.
- Raise Awareness: We would love for you to share with your community about the work TTF is doing. You can follow us on all major social media platforms, as well as join our email community where you can receive the latest information and news.
- Build Community: The unfortunate reality of human trafficking is that it is happening everywhere. We encourage you to be intentional with your community - check in on your friends consistently, build relationships with the at-risk in your community, keep your eyes open and don’t be afraid to ask hard questions. Solid support systems can prevent trafficking from happening before it can occur.
