Fox Valley SCORE is a chapter of SCORE Association, a national organization that provides service to the small business community throughout the US. SCORE’s Values, Beliefs and Actions are guided by these principles:
- Clients Matter – their success is our success
- Giving Back Matters – our volunteers, stakeholders and sponsors, through their support of SCORE are giving back to their communities
- Volunteers Matter – our volunteers give freely of their time, energy and knowledge to help others. SCORE volunteers donate over one million hours of their time each year to support their communities
- Experience Matters – a client’s experience matters – the truest measure of our mission and our service—and we ensure our clients have a positive experience. A volunteers’ experience matters – their relevant knowledge, wisdom and experiences serve our clients through mentorship and education; and we ensure that volunteers find value and satisfaction while engaged with SCORE
- Relationship Matters – In our relationships with each other, clients and our partners, we act with integrity, respect, honesty, purpose and professionalism. We listen with an open mind, encourage and openly communicate with all people seeking help from SCORE. Personal, long-term relationships are a driver of small business success. Community alliances are critical to the success of SCORE
- Diversity Matters – We believe in the importance, value and power of diversity – diversity of people and diversity of thought. The diversity of race, gender, ethnicity, geography and experience is important and valuable in SCORE. We strive to achieve diversity of our volunteers, staff, board and clients.
- Lifelong Learning Matters – We believe that small business owners who are lifetime learners adapt to change more readily and are more successful. Volunteers as lifelong learners remain relevant, achiever personal satisfaction and growth.
