Legacy Project Award
Now Running: Apply by November 25, 2025 at 11:59PM PDT
Create Something That Moves Your Story Forward
The Legacy Project Award celebrates participants who take bold steps to create something that reflects who they are and where they’re going — whether it’s a club (even a Pineapple Women Club!), an event, business, or initiative that helps you grow your story and your future.
Your project doesn’t have to be finished, your vision, initiative, and story matter most.
💛 Why It Matters
Every idea you launch shapes the path ahead. The Legacy Project Award honors the moment you take your story into the world, turning passions into action and ideas into something that grows with you.
These projects remind us that leadership begins when you believe your voice can spark change.
🏆 The Prize

A participant who loved biotech started a newsletter and podcast, now reaching 1,000+ readers.

💡 Examples
All Pineapple Empower participants (past or present) are welcome to apply.
We prioritize participants who host their project website under the Pineapple Women Hub, but a website is not required, and it doesn’t need to be built on Wix.
💛 Need help? We can assist you in creating or transferring your project website.
You will not be disqualified if you don’t have a website.

❓ Quick FAQ
-
Do I need a website to apply?
→ No. You can still apply even if your project doesn’t have a website yet. -
Can I start something small?
→ Yes! A newsletter, club, event, or series of workshops all count — it’s about how it grows your story. -
Can I apply if my project started before Pineapple Empower?
→ Yes! As long as you’ve continued building it during or after your cohort and can show how Pineapple Women has helped you grow or advance your project, you’re eligible to apply.
