Rescuing 50,000 Children From Sex Trafficking

Former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow is on a mission to stop the abuse and exploitation of children online and is joining lawmakers in rallying bipartisan support for the “Renewed Hope Act of 2024.”

The bill aims to help find and protect the more than 50,000 unidentified children seen in sexually abusive images online.

“This bill will help build a stronger rescue team of analysts, investigators and law enforcement,” Tebow posted on X. “Will you stand with us and raise your voice to urge your congressional representatives to support and co-sponsor this bill to protect children who are being sexually abused and exploited?”

“We are willing to come together to put down our differences and to say that for every single one of those boys and girls, they’re worth it,” he stated.

“To do whatever it takes, however it takes, whatever we gotta do so that they can be protected, so that they can be loved, so that maybe they can experience the faith, hope and love they so desperately, desperately deserve, and desperately need. Because right now, while we’re talking, they’re crying,” Tebow said.

Last year, Tebow announced that his non-profit organization, The Tim Tebow Foundation, successfully rescued 2,000 survivors whilst securing the conviction of over 500 traffickers in the past decade.

To further enhance their efforts in rescuing vulnerable children, Tebow and his foundation are intensifying their initiatives.

According to the foundation’s anti-trafficking campaign, UNKNOWN, more than 50,000 images of unidentified children being abused, raped, and tortured are sitting in a global law enforcement database.

“And for those 50,000 law enforcement has not been able to identity,” Tebow explained, “many people would refer to this as CSAM – child sexual abuse material – and we know that there are boys and girls that are being raped and tortured but are still unknown.”

More than any other nation is the world, the U.S. hosts many of these harmful websites that contain this devastating material.

“Children around the world are suffering from horrific sexual abuse, many from the very people who are meant to protect them. CSAM, or child sexual abuse material, is an evil that has been hiding in the darkness of our communities, our homes, and the internet for too long and it’s past time we exposed it to the light,” Tebow wrote.

“Those are all boys and girls that are made in the image of God that are going through torture.”

The Tim Tebow Foundation is also working in more than a dozen countries to stop human trafficking and child sex abuse.

Speaking to lawmakers this year, Tebow stated: “To sum it up, we strive to fight for people who can’t fight for themselves.”
