Please visit the new page to apply.
SCORE is the nation’s largest network of volunteer, expert business mentors, who are dedicated to helping small businesses get off the ground, grow and achieve their goals. SCORE is funded in part through a Cooperative Agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration.
Chapter Chairs are one of the most critical volunteer roles to SCORE as they guide our chapters in our mission to serve small business needs throughout the country. As a local SCORE Chapter Chair, you would oversee chapter operations, set the vision and strategic direction for your chapter and focus all the enthusiasm of your volunteers on a successful organization to make a lasting impact on your community. Training and onboarding will be provided.
The Chapter Chair volunteer role should also focus on:
- Creating a diverse and inclusive culture
- Inspiring your volunteers
- Identifying opportunities & threats
- Recruiting for growth
Our Mission: To foster vibrant small business communities through mentoring and education.
Our Vision: We aim to give every person the support they need to thrive as a small business owner.
In 2021 alone, SCORE volunteers helped start 25,084 new businesses, produced 71,475 non-owner Jobs, and created a total of 96,559 new jobs. Not only that, as a SCORE volunteer you will have the chance to work alongside other community-minded, business professionals and specialists to build your local small business community.
