By Becky Ginos

LAYTON—Approximately 1.3 billion people, or about 16% of the world's population, live with a significant disability, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This translates to 1 in 6 people globally.

In an effort to make some of the most vulnerable people feel loved and valued, former NFL player Tim Tebow, created the Tim Tebow Foundation whose mission is “To bring faith, hope and love to those needing a brighter day in their darkest hour of need.”
