Overview
Each year, SCORE counselors touch thousands of lives, generously sharing their knowledge and experience so that entrepreneurs can realize their dreams of business success. If you want to share your business expertise, give back to your community, gain satisfaction from seeing others succeed and connect with the like-minded people, consider volunteering with SCORE.

Nationwide 11,000 men and women in 389 SCORE offices, retired and working, donate their time and talent to assist America's entrepreneurs. At Wilkes-Barre SCORE, volunteers provide confidential one-to-one and team business counseling and low-cost entrepreneurial training workshops and seminars. In addition, many counselors are virtual volunteers, providing online counseling directly from their home or offices.

Counselors come from a variety of occupations and backgrounds. Many volunteer counselors owned small businesses for years while others have worked for Fortune 500 firms. Counselors share a belief that small business owners are more likely to succeed if they have a business mentor to guide them.

Make SCORE Your First Choice in Volunteerism.
