Key program components
Blood 24/7 connects patients and blood donors through a free Android app. In India, getting required blood can be a challenge; even though blood supplies exist, there was no resource for patients to find needed blood, meaning individuals often searched for a blood donation through social media and other sources. The developers identified a need for an integrated platform that would improve access to the right blood type. It has started with individuals, but the app is exploring partnerships with hospitals and blood banks.
