About SCORE
Small business
ownership makes
entrepreneurial
dreams a reality;
transforms
individual lives;
builds financial
wealth; shapes
futures; increases
commerce in our
communities; and is
the engine behind
the health and
growth of the
national economy.
The SCORE
Association,
headquartered in
Washington, D.C., is
a nonprofit
association
dedicated to
entrepreneurial
education and the
formation, growth
and success of small
businesses
nationwide. Our
public service
mission is to help
more entrepreneurs
become successful
small business
owners through
face-to-face and
email business
counseling.
SCORE is composed of
10,500 volunteer
business mentors,
both working and
retired, who counsel
businesses from 389
chapter offices
throughout the
country. SCORE
volunteers hail from
every facet of the
business community.
Some have worked at
large corporations
such as Kodak, Xerox
or Boeing. Some have
served in our
military or worked
for the local or
federal government.
Others have spent
years cultivating
their own small
business.
Last year, SCORE
helped expand small
business
opportunities
through assistance
to more than 400,000
Americans.
