Become a Business Advisor

Help a Startup Entrepreneur. Serve Your Community.

Since Scarborough Food Security Initiative opened its first food bank the number of clients has continually grown. StartUp Scarborough is part of our effort to reverse this trend.


At Start-Up Scarborough, our goal is to help residents develop and grow entrepreneurial ideas into sustainable businesses that are financially rewarding, promote economic development and grow employment opportunities in the community.


To accomplish this, we need the help of experienced business owners to become business advisors. We’re also looking for a legal consultant and a tax consultant to answer any questions that the business advisors have.


As a business advisor, you’ll be partnered with a client whose business idea matches your experience. You’ll have the final say as to whether you take on a client and, once you are partnered, you’ll set your schedule with the client so that it is convenient to both of you.


While most of your client meetings will be one-on-one, you have our support.


  • Our onboarding guide will show you how to simply communicate with your client, set meetings, and give feedback on their progress.
  • We have a consultant to help you with the fundamentals of business set up that you may not have done for a few years.
  • Should you encounter a challenge that you’re uncertain about, we’ll find the resources to help you and your client.
  • You’ll be part of a community of business advisors who can support each other
