Why Advise with PCV?
PCV is a national nonprofit that has supported small businesses for more than twenty years through advising, capital, and community partnerships. The advising program is structured so you can be effective without taking on administrative work: PCV handles matching, provides orientation and resources, and stays available for support throughout the engagement. Advisors also gain access to learning opportunities and a broader community of professionals who care about strengthening small businesses. Working with PCV means your time directly supports entrepreneurs who often have limited access to experienced guidance and are building stability for themselves and their communities.
