SCORE is made up of volunteers from all backgrounds coming together as a team to complete a common goal: to help small businesses succeed.

Whether you are currently active in business or have retired from business, SCORE needs you in providing face-to-face counseling with business owners and entrepreneurs.  The South Metro/Burnsville Chapter is always looking for community-conscious individuals who enjoy learning, problem-solving business challenges and sharing their knowledge with emerging and in-business entrepreneurs.

SCORE is also about extraordinary volunteers who donate their time and talent in a number of other ways including:

  • workshop presenter

  • guest speaker

  • marketing expert

  • membership development pro

  • special events coordinator

  • computer specialist

  • office manager

  • fundraising chair

Nationwide 12,000 men and women, retired and working, donate their time and talent to assist America’s entrepreneurs. At our 389 SCORE offices, volunteers provide confidential one-to-one and team business counseling and low-cost entrepreneurial training workshops and seminar. In addition, many counselors are virtual volunteers, providing email counseling directly from their homes or offices.

As a SCORE volunteer, you will:

  • Be a leader in the effort to provide real-world assistance to small businesses.

  • Gain fulfillment by sharing your business experience and expertise with a new generation of entrepreneurs.

  • Build relationships with local business leaders to provide economic growth and employment opportunities in the local area.

  • Connect with entrepreneurs though counseling, or share your knowledge at SCORE’s entrepreneurial training workshops.

If you have a desire to serve or give back to the business committee, please Contact Us for more information about joining the South Metro/Burnsville Chapter. Or request more information by filling out the form below.
