Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr., and Bronx Overall Economic Development Corporation President Marlene Cintron cut the ribbon today on a new Bronx office for SCORE, a nonprofit that offers free counseling for small businesses and entrepreneurs.

The new SCORE office will be in the building that houses the BOEDC, at 851 Grand Concourse, where business owners can seek advice from professional mentors every Thursday from 10 to 4 p.m. You can make an appointment by calling (718) 590-6252.

“Our Bronx businesses need and deserve every resource they can get,” Diaz said. “I am thrilled that SCORE has made a decision to provide direct access to its services to Bronx businesses.”
