WHY JOIN THE OLIVE NETWORK - to connect people making a difference.

Every Organisation that joins the Olive Network will be able to share stories and news and create a link to their website to connect with a new audience – educating, informing and facilitating debate about the issues that matter, reaching out to a world of socially concerned citizens to help positive knowledge grow. 

Your page has a News Feed, About and Stories options. You supply images and text (or we can simply copy them from your website), we do the rest. We create your entry and then you post your own stories and other material, or send them through to us.
