Have you ever considered yourself a mentor? Do you want to give back to your community and help others become successful? Retired or employed, SCORE is an organization where you can put your experience to work to help others in small business succeed.

SCORE members are counselors to America's small business. SCORE is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping the small business community through no-fee mentoring and business counseling and low-cost workshops.

SCORE association members volunteer their time and considerable business expertise to help coach the next generation of entrepreneurs. SCORE has 389 chapters and over 12,000 members nationwide. In SCORE's 40 years of service, association volunteers have assisted nearly 4 million business owners.
