SCORE is a nonprofit association dedicated to educating entrepreneurs and has been helping small businesses succeed for more than 50 years. It’s made up of senior executive and business owner volunteers who have decided to give back by offering free one-on-one mentoring to those interested in starting, growing, or maintaining their business. The Salt Lake Chapter is made up of around 40 volunteer mentors who have the knowledge and experience to help small business owners get the help they need. Their intention is to provide free advice and mentoring “for the life of your business.”
SCORE provides local workshops and events to connect small business owners with essential people and information. They also provide online resources, templates, and tools to assist entrepreneurs in developing plans to navigate their way to small business success.
Last year, the Salt Lake Chapter helped start 244 new businesses. That’s 407 new jobs created! Visit saltlake.score.org for more information.
SelectHealth recognizes the personalized business resources offered by SCORE as another example of how Utah Gives Back.
