You can add a SqlDataSource. Configure it so that it fetches your desired list from DB. Then attach it to the CheckBoxList as shown below.

XML

<asp:CheckBoxList runat="server" ID="mycheckboxlst" DataValueField="City"
        DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataTextField="FirstName"></asp:CheckBoxList>
    <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
        ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:SampleDatabaseConnectionString %>"
        SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [CustomerInfo]"></asp:SqlDataSource>

Note that you need to set DataValueField and DataTextField properties to bind the text and value for each check box.
