State Theme

United We Lead, Kentucky Succeeds

Kentucky FBLA prides itself on its diversity, celebrating the unique strengths of every region and every chapter. The theme this year, United We Lead, Kentucky Succeeds, reflects the idea that one of the commonwealth’s greatest strengths is the diversity found throughout our membership.

By embracing unique qualities, we foster a stronger sense of unity among members. This year's theme encourages members to celebrate those differences while working together toward a common purpose.

We encourage you to live out this year's theme by running for a state or regional office, networking with students from across the commonwealth, and inspiring others to take pride in being part of the outstanding organization that is Kentucky FBLA.

State Project

Assisting Kentucky Businesses

This year’s state project is about giving back to Kentucky businesses while promoting economic growth, strengthening partnerships, and making a lasting impact in our communities.

For example, your chapter could partner with a Kentucky-based business to redesign a local business card, create or update a website, improve their social media presence, or organize a community event that highlights them. Kentucky businesses give so much back to our communities while providing valuable opportunities for us to learn, serve, and grow as future business leaders.

By assisting Kentucky businesses, we are not only building stronger partnerships, but also developing as leaders, problem solvers, and business professionals. Together, we can leave a lasting impact across the commonwealth; one business, one partnership, and one chapter at a time.

2026-2027 KY FBLA Goals

This year, our focus is on encouraging meaningful mentorship among members, advisers, and chapters across the state. This includes connecting advisers based on their experience or areas of expertise, pairing new members with experienced members (or even alumni), and partnering established chapters with newer ones. By building chapter directories and fostering regular communication, members can share ideas, support one another, and grow stronger together. Our five state goals are:

Increase or maintain chapter membership.
Encourage member and chapter participation in FBLA programs.
Participate in community service activities.
Enhance communication and visibility of FBLA.
Increase small business and/or chamber of commerce involvement.
