We at Central Virginia SCORE invite exceptional people to join our team of dedicated volunteers to help build the future of small business in our community. Small businesses are the backbone of neighborhoods and the economy and are just beginning to emerge from the pandemic. SCORE has been providing them with free mentoring and low cost webinars and workshops for over 50 years. The Central VA chapter needs roll-up-the-sleeves, dynamic individuals with business or related skills to mentor our growing numbers of clients. If you are looking to make a difference, SCORE is the right place for you.
A SCORE mentor is an adviser who uses his or her expertise to help entrepreneurs launch their dreams...and small business owners reach their goals. Mentors provide free business advice and education using the knowledge acquired from their career experiences and ongoing learning......all delivered virtually in a few hours per month on a self-managed schedule.
The ideal mentor is a good listener, curious, empathetic, flexible, and thrives on helping others succeed. Mentors often have significant experience within their field, excellent communication skills, and the ability to dedicate a few hours a month from the comfort of home.
Apply to be a mentor in Central Virginia if you have experience as a business owner, or in a corporate functional role or general management, or in business or commerce education, or other business related profession including but not limited to marketing, finance and accounting, information technology, etc. Or view other volunteer opportunities on our website.
