Special Needs Community
Buddy Baskets
Join us in celebrating each child born with Down syndrome in Northeast Florida by filling our Buddy Baskets with new parent essentials! Through strong partnerships in the community, most notably the Down Syndrome Assocation of Jacksonville, each family will receive a Buddy Basket filled with snacks, baby toys, restaurant gift cards, onesies, soft blankets, baby videos and prayer books upon birth. On average, 30-35 children are born each year in Northeast Florida with Down syndrome and we aim to celebrate the happiest extra chromosome alongside each special family with your help!
All-Star Kids Golf Clinic
Since 2014, we’ve teamed up with our friends at Wyndham Worldwide, Wyndham Championship, and the First Tee of the Triad to host a golf clinic for 25 children with special needs in Greensboro, NC. It’s an amazing afternoon filled with smiles, laughter, and some serious golf skills on the practice greens! Deserving children teach us so much about what it means to share pure joy for not only the game of golf, but simply life. Since our launch, we’ve added the incredible support of our presenting sponsor, Stonemont Financial which has allowed us to add the Tesori’s hometown of Ponte Vedra Beach, FL to coincide with The PLAYERS Championship, Charlotte, NC in partnership with the Wells Fargo Championship, Phoenix, AZ, the home of the Waste Management Phoenix Open, as well as Jackson, MS in partnership with our amazing friends at the Sanderson Farms Championship. As of 2023, we have hosted more than 40 ASKCs, served over 1,000 All-Stars through the service of more than 2,500 volunteers and we’re still going!
Night to Shine
Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom night experience hosted by the Tim Tebow Foundation, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs ages 16 and older. In 2023, on one night (February 10, 2023), more than 600 host churches in 48 states and 46 countries hosted Night to Shine. Hundreds of thousands of volunteers and 75,000 Kings and Queens shared the same amazing prom experience on the same night around the world. As we have since the year Isaiah was born (2014) in the very first Night to Shine, we partnered with TTF to crown each Queen with a sparkling tiara, each King with a handsome crown and hosted the crowd favorite, Karaoke Room, at the Night to Shine in Jacksonville, FL. It was a Night to Shine we’ll never forget.
Seniors
Isaiah’s Smiles
We visit our favorite local senior center, Ponte Vedra Gardens (formerly Arbor Terrace), a local memory care facility, several times a year to share smiles and hugs with our senior residents & show our elders we are thankful We know the days outside of major holidays can be the especially lonely, so our foundation’s closest friends and volunteers bring sweets, board games, sing-alongs and lots of smiles year-round. All ages are welcomed to volunteer – young children with BIG smiles encouraged. Can’t wait for you to light up Isaiah’s Smiles!
Homeless Community
Hope for the Holidays
We’re committed to giving back to those in need year-round, but we find a special gift in giving to those in need over the holidays. Each holiday season, we adopt 50+ special kids and their families through the Emergency Services & Homeless Coalition of St. Johns County (ESHC) and dozens of unaccompanied teens at Port in the Storm. If you’d like to help us make the holidays bright for these deserving families or teens, we invite you to learn more about ways you can serve alongside us!
