About the project

Linda Cohen's initial approach to Sound Data Solutions was for social media management, but our collaborative journey with Olive Branch evolved into something much more impactful. In our discussions, the essence of Olive Branch's mission came to light: to introduce the ancient and living traditions of Palestine to the Martha's Vineyard community and its visitors.

Recognizing the impact of their mission, we crafted a custom web platform to help amplify their impact. Shortly after launching their online store on this platform, they began selling fair trade products, directly supporting communities affected by recent global events.

This quick success showcased not only Olive Branch's commitment to their cause but also our dedication at Sound Data Solutions to empowering organizations through technology for societal benefit.

What the client says

It's a very nice and much more functional website. Very uplifting to have a polished website that will reflect well on the wonderful artisans that I'm working with.
