Military spouses are often the silent force that drives the strength and resilience of military families. Despite their significant contributions, their stories remain largely untold. The Mighty Spouse Award Program aims to change that by recognizing the diverse, often underappreciated role of military spouses across the nation. From supporting active duty service members to shaping vibrant communities, this award shines a well-deserved spotlight on the unsung homefront warriors who make sacrifices behind the scenes.

The Mighty Spouse Award highlights several key areas where military spouses are making a lasting impact:

  • Social Impact: Recognizing spouses who advocate for social change, lead community initiatives, or use their voice to improve the well-being of others.
  • Entrepreneurship: Celebrating military spouses who have started businesses, launched entrepreneurial ventures, or created economic opportunities that benefit the military community.
  • Hometown Hero: Acknowledging those who make significant contributions to their hometowns by volunteering, leading local organizations, or providing unwavering support for community causes.

The Mighty Spouse Award will be presented at select MilSpouseFest events, which take place in various locations across the United States. Each event will focus on recognizing the contributions of military spouses in local communities, making the award program a celebration tailored to the specific needs and achievements of those regions. 

The events will be held in the following cities:

  • Tampa, FL – February 13, 2025 
  • Austin/Cavazos, TX – March 13, 2025 
  • San Diego, CA – April 15, 2025
  • Fort Bragg, NC – May 15, 2025
  • Washington, DC – May 29, 2025 

Each winner announced at MSF will receive an all-expense paid trip to the Military Influencer Conference, where they will compete for the top spot. The overall Mighty MilSpouse will receive cash prizes, scholarships, and other unique opportunities as a thank-you for their tireless efforts for the military community. 

The Mighty Spouse Award Program is more than just an award; it’s a movement to recognize and celebrate the incredible military spouses who play a vital role in the lives of service members and the communities they call home. Through this program, military spouses will receive the recognition they truly deserve, alongside resources that can enhance their personal and professional journeys. The Mighty Spouse Award is a powerful reminder that behind every military service member is a partner whose contributions are just as significant—and it’s time their stories are told.

If you know a military spouse who deserves recognition, nominate them for the Mighty Spouse Award and help us celebrate their dedication, strength, and impact on the world.
