APC SoCSIT will develop for the Philippine Red Cross, Makati, an Online Bloodbank Application. The Online Bloodbank is meant as an information resource for Red Cross Makati to keep track of all blood donors. The system will have donor profiles and segmentation/classification on types of donors. The idea would be to develop and information resource where it would be easy to locate willing blood donors and have pertinent contact information as well as ability to locate them by area. Privacy of individuals must be given of high importance. Further technological developments would be ability to SMS and email alerts to members so the community of donors can be notified whenever blood is needed so they can, if they would and could, donate at that given time.
In line with the bloodbank application, the SoCSIT projects intend to overhaul the Makati Red Cross website ( www.redcrossmakati.org ) to feature all the basic information aspect as well as social networking plugins like facebook fan box, twitter feeds and online payment applications for donations. It will be the online representation of Red Cross Makati and it will be aimed at meeting world class standards and quality in web development.
An added bonus feature is The Red Cross Youth website that is aimed at inviting high school and below youths to join the Red Cross Volunteerism efforts. It will feature a basic information site plus membership registration and management. It will have calendar of activities and various social networking plugins as necessary. The design should appeal to the Youth primarily but also aimed at promoting the program to educators and parents that will help influence their kids to join.
