My name is Pratham Bathla and I along with my teammates were working on a project named Blood Bond encouraging the college Student community towards blood donation.
My team The Debugging Dead consists of 4 amazing people proficient in their field of work Harsh Madhur, Adil Sheikh, Aviral Shukla, and me. We all are currently pursuing a Bachelor Of Technology from J.S.S Academy of Technical Education.

In the current scenario, Everyday 12,000 people die due to lack of blood . India collects 11 million units of blood but needs 15 million units, so there's a deficit of 4 million units. Over 40 districts in India don't have a single blood bank.
Blood Bond aims to help blood banks as well as college students to form a link between them. Our project works on "Donate for the future". Here are some key features of our application.
The future security of the donor and donor's family: As a donor (student) donates his/her blood in the blood bank he/she will get a credit point, which can be used in the future or whenever his family or wants blood in an emergency, at that time those points can be redeemed.
Healthy Blood to Blood Banks: We are aiming at the student community as they are above 21 years of age have a healthy body and physique and have a better blood recovery rate.
Emergency Donations: Whenever a patient needs any type of blood group in an emergency, then a notification with the contact info of active donors will be released to all the donors, and if anyone is near the specified location, he/she can help that individual.
Donor Events: Donor events will be conducted to show them how valuable their contributions were to saving a number of lives and encourage them for more blood donation in future.
Perks to students: we will offer them Free Health Checkups, discount on the educational courses and some free gift vouchers by collaborating with educational firms.
Access near by blood bank: In case of emergency , the person can get location of blood bank and required blood availability by entering his current location.
How Will We Implement This ?
We will Implement the solution in the following steps:
Making direct connections with Blood Banks and partnering with them
We connect students through college societies by organizing events , WhatsApp community and social media.
We are partnering with educational institutions to provide perks like discounted educational courses .
Perks for the Donors:
The main motive for providing perks is to encourage donations and spread awareness
1-month Health Insurance: Donors will be provided one month of life insurance for blood deficiency-related diseases.
Diagnosis reports: Diagnosis reports will be available on the user's portal and updated(previous one) after the blood is donated and diagnosed.
Certifications and Badges: To encourage donors and to spread awareness we will provide them with badges and certifications
