Gift-a-Deed app

The intent is to provide a platform, for enabling users to tag locations (around within any city) where there is a basic need for either Food, Clothes, Water, Shelter.

Using location based technology (similar to mobile car booking apps), the location of a need is marked by an icon (related to the need). In 2nd version of this app we also plan to introduce virtual reality/augmented reality characters which can be seen on Google maps as well as with a camera. This is purely to make the app interesting for user experience.

On the other hand, after a need is tagged (by a tagger user), the donor or fulfiller user could be anywhere in the neighbourhood (house or a restaurant or ashram) where excess food/water or clothes or shelter is available. The fulfiller/donor can then find the needy location using google maps (respective need icon) and donate directly. After donating the food or other basic necessity, the fulfiler can mark the need as fulfilled/gifted.

To make the app interesting there are points allocated to both tagger and fulfilers. The taggers also get a message via the app, when a need is fulfilled.

Background of Gift -a-Deed

Gift of a basic necessity of food, water, clothing, shelter et all, to a Needy anywhere anytime. Gift of a platform to enable you do a Good-Deed today, without depending on any one organization or gov't. This is as they say in sharing economy, "Democratization of Charity". Deed of doing good, or simply a Good Deed of helping a fellow human being for basic necessities of life, which nature out to have made it free for everyone. Even Birds and Animals get the basic necessities of life free from nature, be it a wild Jungle or in vastness of the Oceans; a nest for bird in a Tree, or the wild grass lands for Herbivores animals to graze on or for that matter for a Fish in an Ocean of water. Why then in a Human civilized world Jungle we have extreme Have & Have-nots.
