Rather, the material goes to artistic people that use it in their businesses for products they sell. “SCORE has been a very useful resource for us. John has been a great coach and mentor. Like all nonprofits, we’ve had a couple of rough spots and he has helped us through them.”

Shelley Wolfe of KMVT

Kmvt 15 gives coverage of over 90 high school sporting events a year, a full array of digital workshops, camps, tours and after school programs for students of all ages. They have 40 independent volunteer producers creating local programs in her studio monthly. "What stood out most was all the knowledge that SCORE counselors carry and also their passion to see others grow and be successful. They listen, show respect, and then give responses which I love because it means they listened and also got the idea.”

Hydro Institute

He converted several struggling community-based programs into thriving centers of health and wellness, improving these center’s operational efficiencies and programmatic effectiveness. “I have learned an immense amount from SCORE when it comes to developing sustainable business practice”.
