Watson B. Duncan MIddle School
FBLA chapters like my school's, Duncan Middle School, can enter to do a community event. My chapter has chosen to help several charities, which if you keep reading you can find out more. In a chapter event, the entire chapter must participate and help out their chosen charity. Winning is based on what you did to help the community and how many hours of effort you have put into helping your charity. Read on to learn more!
