Blood Donation Application

The Problem

Blood donation coordination was fragmented, making it difficult for donors, volunteers, and admins to connect, manage requests, and publish timely content.

The Solution

Built a MERN platform with role-based access, donation request management, searchable blood availability, blog content admin, and JWT-protected APIs.

Challenges Faced

Implementing robust role-based access control across donor, volunteer, and admin flows while keeping the dashboard responsive was the biggest challenge. Ensuring secure JWT authentication and scalable donation request search/filter capabilities added important backend complexity.

Future Plans

Expand analytics dashboards, add real-time donation availability alerts, and integrate a mobile-friendly request matching experience for faster donor response.
