Welcome to the MLBC Foundation

The MLBC Foundation is a Section 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation of the Internal Revenue Code and was formed to support the charitable and educational activities of the Michael Late Benedum Chapter of the American Association of Professional Landmen (MLBC-AAPL).  The mission of the MLBC Foundation is to encourage its members to engage with their communities throughout the Appalachian Basin by means of charitable events and activities that support those in need. Additionally, the MLBC Foundation provides educational programs and scholarship opportunities designed to foster interest in and promote the oil, gas and other energy industries in our region.  The MLBC Foundation is an organization for land professionals who care, not just about the land, but for the people and communities that define it.
