SCORE: 60 Years of Small Business Success
Helping 17 Million Entrepreneurs achieve their dreams
SCORE proudly celebrates 60 years of helping America’s small businesses launch, grow and thrive. Since 1964, more than 17 million entrepreneurs have received support from SCORE, a resource partner of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA).
Today, SCORE has a nationwide network of more than 10,000 volunteers serving all 50 U.S. states and territories, guiding entrepreneurs on their path to success.
My name is Jack Wilson, and I'm with the Philadelphia Chapter of SCORE where I serve as a Volunteer Mentor. Our mission is to educate and empower individuals to start businesses, and grow businesses. I always feel good about myself, and local business owners, when I can share something that helps them and gets them closer to realizing their dream of business ownership. I sometimes scratch my head and think, why didn't I do this sooner!
