Inspiration
Pilgrims face a lot of hardships each year, and people (locals and pligrims) want to provide help to them for thawab; but there's no proper way of communication. Besides, There exits some services which pilgrims need to seek them on their own. Therefore, there must be a tool that connects all providers and requesters of such services in that season.
What it does
People who are in need must find a fast way to afford it whether by the the volunteers from the Hajj or any existing emergency system. Services: 1- Health Support, where Pilgrims will be able to request a instant support fro somone near them (doctors or fellow pilgrims). 2- Transportation, where car owners will offer their help to transport Pilgrims. 3- Housing, where locals will offer their help to accommodate Pilgrims. 4- Food, where people will provide their extra food to other people in need. 5- Special Services, which contains services to help people with disabilities and special needs.
