| The Virginia Chapter of the March of Dimes now boasts being one of the top five PBL (Phi Beta Lambda) fundraising chapters in the country for 2008-2009!
At the FBLA-PBL (Future Business Leaders of America and Phi Beta Lambda) National Leadership Conferences during the week of June 22, FBLA-PBL chapters and states were awarded for being top fundraisers in the 2008-2009 school year. In 2008, FBLA-PBL raised over $580,000 for the March of Dimes, making them our number one youth partner.
Check out the videos from the FBLA conference and PBL conference to see March of Dimes featured throughout, including our very successfull conference March for Babies events, exhibiting and workshops. A huge thanks to the Orange County Division and California Chapter for their support in making the March of Dimes presence at the FBLA-PBL conferences a success!
