Life-Saving Technologies: How DonorUA Quickly Finds Blood Donors with the Help of YouScan

In a world where every second counts, speed and accuracy of information become especially valuable. That’s why our collaboration with the unique DonorUA platform is more than just a partnership—it’s real, tangible help for thousands of Ukrainians.
For several years now, YouScan has been supporting DonorUA in their vital mission: providing hospitals with donated blood and swiftly locating donors across the country. DonorUA serves as the only nationwide coordination center that connects donors, recipients, and blood donation centers throughout Ukraine, ensuring instant communication between all parties involved.
The collaboration between DonorUA and YouScan began with a clear understanding: social media has become a powerful space for both offers of help and urgent requests for support. Hundreds of online communities unite those in need of blood with those ready to donate it. But manually tracking all of these requests was nearly impossible. That’s when the DonorUA team turned to YouScan.
Thanks to real-time monitoring of social media, DonorUA stays on top of the information landscape and can immediately respond to emergency requests for help.
DonorUA provides Ukrainians with the most up-to-date and accurate information about blood donation needs in different regions. With the help of the YouScan platform, we constantly monitor requests coming from blood centers, patients, and their families, and publish the most urgent needs every week. The service also allows our coordinators to provide targeted assistance, responding quickly to individual requests. Thank you for being such a vital link in saving lives! — says Iryna Slavinska, co-founder of DonorUA and President of the All-Ukrainian Association of Blood Donors.
With YouScan, the DonorUA team quickly detects urgent calls for blood donations and helps connect patients with potential lifesavers.
But YouScan’s value for DonorUA goes beyond just reacting to SOS signals.
The platform also helps the team:
Get the full picture of needs: by analyzing mentions from across the country, DonorUA gains a clear understanding of where the need for blood is greatest and can focus informational campaigns accordingly.
Forecast future needs: beyond reacting to emergencies, YouScan helps DonorUA predict upcoming needs for blood components. By analyzing historical data and leveraging the platform’s advanced analytics, DonorUA can prevent shortages and plan more effectively to engage donors.
Measure real impact: YouScan provides data on the number of requests successfully fulfilled, helping DonorUA evaluate the scale of their work and clearly demonstrate their life-saving impact.
The collaboration between YouScan and DonorUA is a story about how technology brings people together in life’s most critical moments. Together, we help those in need find those willing to help. It’s a powerful example of how the online space can become a platform for real-world good, where every mention and every repost can help save a life.
DonorUA is carrying out an extraordinary mission, uniting thousands of compassionate Ukrainians. And YouScan is proud to be part of this important work by providing a social media monitoring tool that helps DonorUA do what they do best—even more efficiently.
