What are the activities of FBLA chapters?
Professional
Professional activities provide members with a business connection for their future. Guest speakers, panel discussions, visits to business and industry, and shadowing experiences are used as instructional projects for a chapter's program of work.
Leadership
Participation in FBLA activities as a member, committee chairperson, or officer provides experiences that contribute to the development of a positive self-image and a feeling of accomplishment.
Community
Chapter activities that make a contribution to the community provide members with the opportunity to develop civic pride and responsibility. Members also meet influential business and community leaders, learn the steps necessary to complete a project, and work with business and government officials.
Service
The main purpose of service projects is to help others and these activities can be tailor-made for the school and community.
Tennessee FBLA sponsors five state service projects. Over $100,000 is raised annually for March of Dimes, Tennessee Children's Hospital, Leukemia Society, and Make-a-Wish Foundation. Additionally, many educational programs are conducted to educate the public about the Gift of Life program.
