Steve Biondo currently serves as president of the Tim Tebow Foundation, now in its tenth year of service to vulnerable children and families all over the world. In this interview, Steve shares the importance of serving the interests of others before our own and how that value was planted in Tim Tebow’s heart at the young age of 15. We talk about how to say ‘yes’ to God immediately when He calls us to do something. This is exemplified in Tim and his father through a story about how his father purchased 4 girls in order to rescue them from being trafficked. This is a conversation that will inspire you and challenge you beyond your comfort zone.

Steve Biondo
Steve Biondo currently serves as president of the Tim Tebow Foundation, now in its tenth year of service to vulnerable children and families all over the world. Formerly a senior-level executive at Family Christian Resource Centers, Biondo entered the senior role at the foundation in April 2018 to oversee day-to-day operations and lead the team on mission to bring Faith, Hope and Love to those needing a brighter day in their darkest hour of need.
Since being founded in 2010 by professional athlete and sports analyst, Tim Tebow, TTF has established a reputation as an advocate for the most vulnerable through four main areas of ministry, including Anti-Human Trafficking, Orphan Care + Prevention, Special Needs, and Children with Profound Medical Needs.
