American kids are dying by s*icide after being sextorted.
Sextortion is one of the fastest-growing threats facing teens in America, and most parents have no idea how it works.
1 in 5 teens say they’ve experienced it, and about 77% never told their parents.
Predators depend on that silence. You can break it.
Talk with your son or daughter tonight and make sure they know they can always come to you, no matter what. Try saying: “If this ever happens, come to me. No matter what you’ve sent or what anyone threatens, please tell me. We will get through this together.”
Know a parent who needs this? Send it to them.

A Rare Achievement in Haiti!
Six students just made history as one of the first full graduating classes of LIFE Academy. There have been other individuals who have graduated, but this was the first full class. What began with just three students in a small classroom has grown to 54 students across six classrooms.
Alongside our Ministry Partner, myLIFEspeaks, teachers and staff at LIFE Academy provide children with special needs in Haiti the education and support so often out of reach. Throughout their time at LIFE Academy, these students have worked hard to build independence and learn practical life skills, including sewing and cooking, as they prepare for what comes next.
In a country where children with special needs are often overlooked, this moment matters. These students are seen, celebrated, and deeply loved. Congratulations, graduates!

🍎 Back to School with The Royals!
At The Royals classroom at the TTF Impact Campus in South Africa, children with special needs are seen, valued, and loved. Here, children have the opportunity to learn, grow, build community, and experience the love of Jesus.
And the difference reaches beyond the classroom. More and more people in the community are beginning to recognize the inherent worth of every person.
Because of our Giving Family, we're able to walk alongside our Ministry Partner, Impact Africa, in this important work — empowering parents and shaping generations to come!
51 survivors of human trafficking and exploitation are finding safety and hope in Uganda
Many women in Uganda who have experienced trafficking and exploitation don't have a place to heal. Alongside our Ministry Partner, Okoa Refuge, we’re able to meet these women where they are through outreach, relationship, and care.
Across two Tebow Okoa Philippi Campuses, 51 survivors are currently receiving in-depth counseling, Bible study, mentorship, and vocational training. Staff walk alongside each woman throughout her journey of healing, equipping her to build a life of independence.
Because of the generosity of our Giving Family, women are finding healing, hope, and a new beginning!
Since opening in August 2023, the Tebow Spine Center in Ethiopia has performed over 390 spine procedures for children! 🙌
Through our partnership with CURE International (@cureintl), we’re grateful to have helped establish the first-ever pediatric spine center at CURE Children's Hospital of Ethiopia (@cureethiopia).
An estimated 50,000 boys and girls in Ethiopia are living with severe spinal conditions and have little to no access to the medical and surgical care they need. The Tebow Spine Center provides surgical and noninvasive spinal treatments to children with life-limiting spinal deformities, without financial burden on their families.
Because of you, children with severe spinal conditions now have access to the life-changing care they need! Thank you for helping bring Faith, Hope and Love to some of the world's Most Vulnerable People — the real MVPs.
259 Targets of Online Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse Identified
In a coordinated effort led by our partner @ChildRescueCo in collaboration with the Singapore Police Force, Operation Mariposa Asia brought investigators from seven countries together to identify offenders and protect children from online sexual abuse and exploitation.
Over the course of the operation, 259 targets were identified, with investigations now moving forward through law enforcement agencies in the participating countries.
Officers shared investigative expertise, strengthened international partnerships, and demonstrated what is possible when law enforcement refuses to let borders stand in the way of protecting children!
⚠️WARNING: This video contains highly sensitive information on the topic of child exploitation, including an actual explicit conversation between offenders that you will find disturbing. It is not recommended for viewers under 18.
As difficult as it is to read and see this communication between offenders, you should know that this happens tens of thousands of times every hour around the world. Offenders all over the globe are communicating with each other, sharing fantasies and techniques on how to find and exploit children.
This fight is urgent, and reading these messages, while difficult, should wake us up to this horrific reality. Will you join us in the mission to protect our children?

🚨 381 Buyers of Live-Stream Child Sexual Abuse Identified in Historic U.S. Operation
In a coordinated effort led by our partners at @ChildRescueCo and Homeland Security Investigations, 100 law enforcement officers from 60 police organizations came together to identify and investigate offenders involved in the live-stream sexual abuse of children.
This was the first operation of its kind in the United States and the largest live-stream operation ever held! During the week-long training and operational sprint in Florida, they reviewed 3,000+ leads and 40,000 media files. They identified 381 offenders across all 50 states, one U.S. territory, and five countries.
These offenders are from developed countries, like the United States, who prey on vulnerable children in developing countries, and a single offender can victimize hundreds of children from across the globe.
We are grateful for the investigators, analysts, and partners who continue to work tirelessly to identify offenders, protect vulnerable children, and pursue justice!
"The need of children with disabilities in Albania are many. There's a huge need for inclusion, for services that helps the child and the family to be part of the society, to be loved and cared for, and to have a hope for their future." - Ada Kita, Executive Director at Jonathan Center
In Albania, families often lack the support and resources needed to care for their child with special needs, which can leave them feeling isolated and hopeless.
Alongside Jonathan Center, a ministry partner of TTF, we have the honor of providing children and families with the therapy, resources, and support they need!
Together, we provide children with speech therapy, developmental therapy, music therapy, physiotherapy, and independence courses so they can grow, learn, and thrive!
We also come alongside parents with counseling, training, and a loving community to support them as they care for their child with special needs.
We’re so grateful that since our partnership began, 582 families in Albania have found love and belonging at Jonathan Center. 🤍
Thank you for helping bring Faith, Hope and Love to children and families in their darkest hour of need!
22 children located in Missing Child Rescue Operation in Southwest Florida
Kids who go missing are especially vulnerable. Every hour they're gone, the risk of harm grows. That's why investigators, advocates, and technology partners came together in one command center with one goal: find every child they could.
Our partner, the National Child Protection Task Force, led a coordinated Missing Child Rescue Operation alongside local, state, and federal law enforcement, nonprofit organizations, and private-sector partners. Together, they found 22 kids.
We're grateful for the law enforcement agencies and partners who never stop looking. This work is far from finished. We will keep going to find one more child!
“Everyone deserves to be seen and honored.” —Aida, Edison’s mother
In Albania, people with Down syndrome are often left on the outside looking in, isolated from society and without the proper support they need.
That’s why we partnered with Jonathan Center to provide therapy, holistic care, and the hope of the gospel to individuals and families impacted by disability.
We are so grateful Night to Shine is hosted in Albania, where individuals with special needs, like Edison, are celebrated and honored for who they truly are: God’s royalty!
Thank you for helping bring Faith, Hope and Love to families like Edison’s around the world!

"My dreams for my daughter — for Alketa to become a lady who is able to manage her personal needs by herself and for me to see her one day walking without my help." -Etleva, Alketa's mother
Alketa was diagnosed with Down syndrome at birth and struggled to stay healthy in her early years of life. A year into kindergarten, the doctors told her mother, Etleva, that Alketa also had epilepsy.
Having epilepsy made it difficult for Alketa to walk. Because of this, Etleva had to carry her every time they left the house.
For Etleva, and so many parents in Albania raising a child with special needs, the journey can feel isolating while they search for support and resources that never seem to come.
This is why we partner with Jonathan Center to walk alongside families like Alketa’s, providing developmental support, care, and advocacy to help children with special needs thrive.
Since Alketa began therapy at Jonathan Center, she’s grown in so many ways — her speech has improved, she moves with more ease, and she manages her emotions with growing confidence. Today, she’s active, joyful, and thriving in daily life.
We are so grateful to work alongside Jonathan Center to bring Faith, Hope and Love to children and families in need in Albania!
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16
🎙️: The George Janko Show
In Zimbabwe, thousands of children lack access to surgery for treatable physical disabilities like clubfoot, cleft lip and palate, and other orthopedic conditions. Many children live with untreated conditions or injuries for years, leaving them in pain, vulnerable, and on the fringes of society.
TTF partners with CURE International (@cureintl) at the CURE Children’s Hospital of Zimbabwe (@curezimbabwe) to provide life-changing surgeries for children with profound medical needs, removing the financial burden on families. In 2023, we opened the Tebow Care Center to expand CURE Zimbabwe’s capacity by doubling the number of hospital beds available, allowing more children to receive the care they desperately need.
Thanks to the generosity of our giving family, more children can receive physical healing that had previously been unattainable. More children and families are also being reached with the love of Jesus through gospel presentations from the CURE team.
Since the beginning of our partnership, TTF and CURE Zimbabwe have provided over 1,000 surgeries for children—restoring mobility, renewing hope, and opening doors to brighter futures. Thank you, TTF Family, for helping bring Faith, Hope and Love to these precious children and their families!
