• Jamora Technologie launched Sendon to link blood donors with hospitals in real time.

• The platform uses targeted alerts based on blood type and location to speed up emergency response.

• The solution aims to reduce shortages and structure blood donation systems in Senegal.

Jamora Technologie has developed Sendon, an e-health platform designed to connect blood donors and hospitals through mobile technology. Ousmane Ndieguene founded the startup behind the solution.

The platform operates as an intelligent network. When an urgent need arises, healthcare facilities can issue targeted alerts based on the required blood type and geographic location. Registered donors receive notifications and can go to the nearest donation center.

As a result, the system significantly reduces mobilization time, which remains a critical factor in medical emergencies.

In addition, Sendon provides a structured and regularly updated database of voluntary donors. This feature allows healthcare providers to anticipate demand and organize donation campaigns more effectively.

Therefore, the platform reduces reliance on informal calls for donations, which often circulate on social media without coordination.

The initiative aligns with broader efforts to digitize the healthcare sector in Senegal, where startups increasingly contribute to service improvements. By addressing a concrete public health issue, Sendon demonstrates the potential of local solutions to enhance system efficiency.

Over time, authorities could integrate the platform into national blood management systems. The startup could also expand to other countries facing similar challenges.

If stakeholders support its deployment, the solution could help structure blood donation chains sustainably and save more lives by ensuring that blood becomes available at the right time and in the right place.
