“I’m going to bet big that Space United will accomplish the things that they have set out to do. Any group of people that can figure out how to send rockets into space and are as passionate as they are, gets my backing to achieve whatever they have set out in front of them. ”

OUR FOUNDATION
Goal for Launch!® is our non-profit foundation focused on our unique community outreach program that uses the forces of space & soccer to inspire and support youth while increasing diversity in the STEM industry.
Space United’s engineer-athletes volunteer with underrepresented communities around the world to inspire careers and diversity in STEM. Since 2020 we have reached more than 12,000 students around the world, and we doubled our efforts during the pandemic to help ease the hardships of remote learning.
Our bilingual engineer-athletes help break down the barriers in traditional STEM outreach by:
Making space accessible and relatable for all
Supporting education for youth and minorities with role models working in STEM careers
Complementing STEM with soccer to boost student engagement and well-being
Providing Spanish language space exploration content
Harnessing the global reach of football to expand space exploration across multiple continents and languages
OUR STORY
In 2014, we founded Space United and began our mission of using space & soccer as a force of hope and inspiration to communities around the world. Read more about our Origin's club.
Space & soccer are two of the world's greatest feats. They give hope, the means to achieve and change lives. We want people from all walks of life to be inspired by what they are capable of and not only stop at being inspired but continue to find support in a community that values sharing each other’s success.
At the very core of Space United’s mission is the message behind our founder’s story: success that starts with one can help and touch the lives of everyone around them.
