Blood Donation App

Donating blood can save lives; however, over 1 million people die from hemorrhage each year. Why is this the case? Hospitals frequently experience blood shortages, making it challenging to find donors in emergencies. Additionally, blood donors often don't know where to find clinics in need of donations. Blood Heroes is a proposed platform designed to connect hospitals and individuals in need with blood donors at critical moments. My Role: UX Research, User Experience Design, User Interface Design, Visual and Creative Direction. See More
