Nonprofit Overview
Mission: Timoteo philaelphia inc (timoteo)
Programs: Flag football league - the timoteo youth league is the core of timoteo, and currently serves over 250 young men. Coaches spend quality time investing in the youth by building relationships, leading informal, interactive bible studies, and sharing their own experiences of the love and care of jesus. Football is a fun and engaging way to model the teachings of jesus as well as to connect them to a local church.
summer camp - timoteos summer camp program is a leadership development course on the gridiron. Every summer for 5 weeks, we employ eight of our youth ages 16-17 as camp counselors to 10-15 year olds. Empowering our youth to give back and be involved in mentoring others younger than themselves builds a sense of ownership, responsibility and maturity. Over 120 kids participate in this camp where they are taught football skills, as well as life and biblical lessons through mentorship.
basketball league - in 2016, timoteo expanding from football to include basketball as well during the winter. The basketball league was run using the same principals as described in 4(a) above and served over 150 young men and women in 2016.
