Midas is a celebration of Greek culture and philanthropy.

The Midas Mission

Midas was started by Greek-American High School students as a way to give back to their community. They began selling Greek-inspired apparel at Greek Festivals to raise money for charities that they have been involved with. So far, they have made substantial donations to The HomeProject in Greece, St. Mary’s Children’s Hospital in Queens, The Midnight Run in NYC, and The Henry Viscardi School on Long Island.

Inspired by philanthropy and their ancestry, the two Long Island high school students created The Midas T—a company which supports charitable causes through Greek-inspired apparel.

These acts of service inspired them to give back even more to the community and to contribute in a tangible way. ..
