The operation rescued 59 children with disabilities from Haiti, moving them through Jamaica with help from Rep. Cory Mills, who has already staged two rescue operations in Haiti.
Football legend Tim Tebow and his foundation teamed up with a nonprofit team of veteran commandos to evacuate dozens of orphans with disabilities from Haiti, but thousands remain trapped in the troubled island nation. The operation comes as the beleaguered nation faces danger and famine following the release by gangs of thousands of prisoners and the sudden resignation of the prime minister.
There's 30,000 children in Haiti that belong to nonprofit organizations that are run by American citizens,' TJ said. 'Most of them have no leadership there right now because everyone's had to leave.' 'We were able to successfully evacuate 59 of those 30,000 kids. Of those 30,000, not all those kids have somewhere to go, and not all those kids have special needs, or are high risk,' he said.
