Blood donation plays a crucial role in saving lives during emergencies, surgeries, and chronic conditions. However, traditional systems often rely on intermediaries such as hospitals or clinics, introducing delays and additional costs.



The **Blood Donation Management System** addresses these challenges by creating a centralized platform where:

- Donors can manage their availability.

- Patients can request blood directly from donors.

- Communities can actively engage in life-saving efforts.



This system is secure, cost-effective, and user-friendly, built to revolutionize how blood donations are managed.
