A Crisis Hidden in Plain Sight
Former quarterback Tim Tebow is taking aim at one of America’s darkest undercurrents: the rampant spread of child sex trafficking and abuse material online. In a recent appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show, Tebow cited Department of Justice data showing more than 111,000 unique IP addresses in the U.S. distributing explicit content of children under the age of 12—within just 30 days. He also emphasized that between 55% and 85% of individuals who possess such material are also direct, hands-on abusers, each with an average of 13 victims.
These figures dismantle the common myth that child exploitation is a foreign or distant issue. “People will say, ‘That’s just over there… in those countries,’” Tebow said. “It’s happening in our country, in our neighborhoods, in our backyards, in our families.”

Foundation With Global Reach
The Tim Tebow Foundation has emerged as a key player in the anti-trafficking movement. Its mission, focused on bringing “faith, hope, and love” to those suffering, extends to comprehensive anti-exploitation programs. The foundation supports orphan care, complex medical aid, and outreach to children with special needs—but has notably expanded into human trafficking prevention, victim recovery, and survivor care.
Recent efforts have led to hundreds of rescues both in the U.S. and abroad, including collaborations in Bangkok and ongoing international operations. The foundation’s model combines direct intervention with sustained care—offering safety, therapy, and reintegration support to victims.
Policy Push and Legislative Demand
Tebow’s advocacy doesn’t end with rescue missions. He is now urging federal lawmakers to pass the Renewed Hope Act of 2024, legislation designed to assist in identifying and rescuing as many as 50,000 child victims currently unaccounted for in law enforcement databases.
He has called on Congress to confront the limitations facing officers battling this multibillion-dollar criminal enterprise. “There just aren’t enough resources,” Tebow argued, highlighting the urgent need for expanded funding, training, and legislative tools.
As Tebow’s campaign gains national traction, it challenges every level of American society—from policymakers to ordinary families—to recognize the scale of the threat and act decisively to protect the country’s most vulnerable.
