help us empower students
AIBL is the only American Indigenous non-profit organization solely dedicated to empowering business students in the United States.

Internship sponsor
You can help provide opportunities for our Indigenous student community so that they may pursue their professional dreams. Many Indigenous students do not have the resources required to apply to and graduate from college. Partners like you can help our students achieve their goals by contributing to their academic and professional success.
When you hire an AIBL student you will get a problem solver with a diverse background and unique skill set. AIBL students are leaders within their communities who show up every day determined to make a difference. When an AIBL Student joins your organization, you will be working with top Indigenous talent and expanding your workforce in a meaningful way.

conference sponsor
AIBL’s National Business & Leadership Student Conference is designed to give Indigenous students and professionals access to relevant business information and expertise, offering a variety of activities geared specifically to enhance and expand educational experiences beyond what is taught through traditional academic methods. During the conference, students compete for prizes in business plans, community projects, and elevator pitches, where they are offered leadership roles to gain valuable presentation, organizational, and project management skills and experience.
Partnering with AIBL directly supports students through our Chapters. AIBL Chapters are made up of student groups at high schools, tribal colleges (TCUs), and universities, and are designed to help facilitate the overall goals of AIBL. Chapter members become part of a broad network of Indigenous students and professionals where they can meet new students, make connections, and build relationships.
student mentorship
Each year, the Mentoring Program welcomes 30-45 Indigenous college students to strengthen professional skillsets and personal resilience through training, mentoring, and network opportunities–empowering youth business leaders with the experience necessary to lead economic endeavors within their communities. Professionals like yourself can help mentor and support these future leaders.
