A 501(c)3 nonprofit volunteer organization, SCORE’s mission is to provide free and very low cost educational programs and services to new entrepreneurs and growing small businesses. Chester & Delaware County SCORE relies on the expertise of a dedicated corps of volunteers who give thousands of hours annually to help local businesses succeed. Typically, 70 percent of small businesses fail within the first five years. Major contributing factors are a lack of planning and expertise in key functional areas.
