FBLA CREED
I
believe education is the right of every person.
I believe the future depends on mutual understanding
and cooperation among business, industry,
labor, religious, family, and educational institutions, as well
as people around the world. I agree to do my utmost to bring about understanding
and cooperation among al of these groups.
I believe every person should prepare for a useful
occupation and carry on that occupation
in a manner that brings the greatest good to the greatest number.
I believe every person should actively work toward
improving social, political, community,
and family life.
I believe every person has the right to earn a living
at a useful occupation and that this right
should not be denied because of race, color, creed, sex, or handicap.
I believe every person should take responsibility
for carrying out assigned tasks in a manner
that brings credit to self, associates, school, and community.
I believe I have the responsibility to work efficiently
and to think clearly.
I promise to use my abilities to make the work a
better place for everyone.
FBLA
PLEDGE
I solemnly promise to uphold the aims and responsibilities
of Future Business Leaders of America and, as an active member, I shall
strive to develop the qualities necessary in becoming a responsible
business leader.
