Description
Help Fund the Future of Business
UNC Charlotte FBLA Collegiate is a student‑led business organization committed to developing future business leaders through professional growth, leadership development, and career readiness opportunities. Our goal is to provide members with meaningful experiences that bridge the gap between the classroom and the workplace, helping students build the skills, confidence, and connections needed for long‑term success.
We are fundraising $1,200 to expand the quality and accessibility of our professional development programming. This funding allows us to strengthen the experiences we provide to all active members, ensuring that every student has access to high‑impact opportunities that support their personal and professional growth.
Your support allows us to create engaging learning experiences that help students explore opportunities, develop in‑demand skills, and connect with professionals who can influence their personal and professional growth. Your contribution supports:
Guest speaker events — $350 allocated for speaker honoraria, travel support, and event materials.
Professional development workshops — $300 to host workshops focused on career readiness, leadership, communication, and networking skills.
Resume reviews, interview preparation, and career coaching — $200 for professional reviewers and coaches who provide personalized feedback to members.
Resources and materials — $350 for printing, supplies, software tools, and event materials that keep programming accessible at little to no cost for members.
Through these opportunities, students gain practical knowledge, build valuable professional connections, strengthen their leadership abilities, and develop the skills needed to succeed in today’s competitive business environment.
