Midas Football Academy

Midas Football Academy is a Houston-based nonprofit organization with a mission to inspire generations and build for success. Our purpose is to empower youth through a holistic approach that combines athletic excellence, academic achievement, personal development, and career readiness. At Midas, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to succeed—whether on the soccer field, in the classroom, or in life. Through structured sports programming, leadership training, vocational pathways, and educational support, we guide young individuals,especially those from underserved communities,toward realizing their full potential. Our long-term goal is to ensure that every youth who comes through our programs graduates with a clear path forward: as a professional athlete, a college-bound student, or a skilled tradesperson contributing positively to their community. By investing in our youth today, we are building the leaders, professionals, and changemakers of tomorrow. Our Story: Turning Passion Into Purpose Founded on the belief that sports can be a powerful vehicle for social change, Midas Football Academy began with a single vision—to give youth, particularly those in underserved neighborhoods, a place where they could grow, dream, and achieve. What started as a grassroots effort on local soccer fields has grown into a robust organization with a wide range of programs that go far beyond sports. We saw that many talented youth lacked access,not only to quality coaching, but to the wraparound support systems that lead to long-term success. Midas Football Academy fills that gap by integrating mentorship, education, mental wellness, and vocational development into every aspect of our work. Our Programs: More Than Just a Game Midas Football Academy offers a variety of programs designed to support the whole child: 🔹 Youth Soccer Development 🔹 Iwuri Empowerment Program 🔹 Houston Futures Mentorship Initiative 🔹 Health & Wellness Advocacy.
