Olive Community Services, born five years ago in North Orange County, California has grown to provide a range of services providing seniors opportunities to lead more active and engaging lives which effectively counteracts the isolation and loneliness that many seniors experience in our families and in our communities.
As with many other businesses and organization, Olive Community Services was able to pivot during COVID thereby providing effective online programs. These programs now effectively engage seniors whether they are able to attend in-person events but also serve the seniors that do not have that capability.
As Olive Community Services serves to help seniors with their signature Live, Learn and Thrive program, the organization also continues to grow and thrive. Their most recent
successful endeavor was participation in the Give65 program, an online giving platform for charitable organizations who serve vulnerable seniors. The program is designed exclusively for charitable organizations that serve older vulnerable adults who rely on these nonprofit organizations to maintain their quality of life by providing basic needs like meals, transportation, housing, activities, etc.
Olive Community Services is now planning to share the what’s how’s and why’s of their program in an Online challenge event in order to help other communities around the country learn how to serve the needs of the seniors in their communities.
