Hispanic Heritage Month highlights the vital contributions of Hispanic-owned businesses to the economy. It serves as a platform to recognize the achievements and challenges faced by Hispanic entrepreneurs while encouraging support and investment in their growth. Organizations like SCORE play a crucial role by providing resources, mentorship and guidance to help Hispanic businesses thrive. Be sure to check out the Hispanic Entrepreneurs Hub for content and webinars created especially for Hispanic business owners.

SCORE has the resources you need to achieve success, like Chris Rourk, owner of VOLTA Ion. “SCORE played a pivotal role in VOLTA Ion's journey. My SCORE mentor, Mark, guided me through rewriting our business plan during COVID, liaising with banks to secure our first loan and providing invaluable advice through their extensive network of experts.”
