About GNN
OUR MISSION
To promote good news worldwide.
The Good News Notebook (GNN) is an online digital magazine that encourages all things positive. From Exciting Events & Entertainment to Everyday News, we welcome your Good News.
GoodNewsNotebook (GNN) started as a community outreach initiative in the state of Georgia, founded by our CEO & Managing Editor, Connie Alsobrook. In an effort to expand its reach, we created a digital online community to connect people and businesses who do good in our communities. In doing so, the community outreach efforts grew exponentially from our Annual Coat Drives to our Teen Debate series and our popular School Supply Drives.
Since 2007, our CEO & Managing Editor, Connie Alsobrook was able to hear many stories of why companies felt compelled to give, to witness tales of neighbors helping displaced neighbors, to experience opportunities where children were creating organizations to fulfill a need, and many more good stories.
Now, as a fully interactive digital magazine, this is where GoodNewsNotebook (GNN) thrives. Our bold approach to news media provides a place for all the “good” stories. GoodNewsNotebook (GNN) continues to provide community outreach as well as promote good stories of others doing good. Our topics include GoodNews, GoodEvents, GoodPeople, GoodEvents, and much more.
