Future Business Leaders of America

Future Business Leaders of America

FBLA is the premier business education association in the country. The mission of Future Business Leaders of America is to bring business and education together in a positive working relationship through innovative leadership and career development programs. A national association of middle school, high school, career and technical, community college, college and university students interested in business and business-related careers, FBLA has nearly 250,000 members and more than 15,000-chartered chapters throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Europe. Though divided into five regions, a state chairperson and FBLA advisers primarily govern FBLA at the state level. In many states, the State Department of Education employs all three of these individuals who act as the statewide administrators for FBLA.

Partnership
March of Dimes has enjoyed a successful partnership with FBLA since 1970. In this time, FBLA‐PBL has raised millions of dollars for March of Dimes, and in turn, March of Dimes has reached hundreds of thousands of young people with its health education and mission messages.

March of Dimes is FBLA‐PBL’s only national charity partner, and attends all national and regional FBLA‐PBL conferences where applicable. FBLA‐PBL has generated almost $500,000 for several years through March for Babies participation.
