Dear Members, Advisors and Honored Visitors:

Welcome to the new web site of District III Future Business Leaders of America. District III encompasses seven counties: Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester. District III FBLA is home to Rosie O'Donnell's house, the first local chapter in New York State FBLA (Dobbs Ferry High School), and the gigantic Palisades Center Mall. District III is also home to a fantastic group of FBLA members and advisors. I am proud to say that I am the state vice president representing this wonderful district. District III members and advisors have made my job so easy! The dedication and hard work of everyone is apparent in all of our local, district, state and national projects. District III has already raised over $300- for the Ronald McDonald House Charities and over $700- for the New York State Foundation. Holiday breaks may just be around the corner, but District III is always working hard. Congratulations to District III's 33 active chapters! I commend you on a job well done. To all of my present leaders, remember, "Leaders are responsible for future leadership. They need to identify, develop and nurture future leaders" (Max DePree). Take the leadership that you have developed in FBLA and pass it on to someone else in your chapter, family or community. I wish you the best and continued success as always!

Your District III Vice President,

Genevieve Marino
