Students to host tournament to raise funds for a cause

To connect people who require blood with blood donors, two students from the city Adithya Vikram and Varun Nair started a web app.

“Usually, it takes 6-7 hours to get in touch with the right blood donor. We have heard of many incidents and wanted to help those in need. We believe we can make a huge impact through this platform by bridging the gap between blood donors and receivers and matching them to the blood type located closest to them. We are providing a clutter-free experience for the user and reducing the time taken to find a donor through the app, Blod.in,” says one of the founders Varun Nair.

A few enterprising city students have also joined the duo in supporting the cause. “We are entirely running on donations and to raise funds, we are hosting a futsal tournament in the city on August 28 and 29,” he adds.
