Blood Donor

Blood Donor is a combined system of mobile and web applications developed for the National Centre for Blood Transfusion in Kosovo to spread the word when blood is urgently needed. Authorized users send a push notification from the web app to the mobile apps of chosen groups, requesting specific blood donations. The app targets only those who have rested enough since their last donation. People notified can then confirm if they will donate blood. The mobile app offers statistics such as the number of donations for a given user or the quantity of blood donated. The NCBT can send notifications about future campaigns, with details and exact locations appearing in the mobile app. Blood Donor stands out with a simple and easy to use design, ensures collaboration with local officials and delivers an effective process. With the use of new technologies and its great social value, the project is a clear winner, showing potential for creating solutions outside of its native Kosovo.
