LEADERS OF TOMORROW

Mentor a promising youth and pass along your knowledge to the next generation of professionals through our Leaders of Tomorrow® program.

For over a decade, this successful program has provided a positive influence to high school students with a grade point average between C- and C+, who have exhibited leadership potential, but require additional motivational factors in their lives to achieve excellence.

Local mentoring opportunities are available through the NBMBAA's chapters, which include leading workshops, chaperoning students to the NBMBAA Annual Conference, and administering scholarship programs for college bound students.
