Inspiration

We got inspired by the current Ukraine-Russia conflict and how many people are in need of humanitarian aid.

What it does

Our project connects people who want to donate items to organizations that are willing to take the items to provide them to the people in need.

How we built it

We used the java language and VSCode program to create classes and objects that support our GUI graphics and database of organizations.

Challenges we ran into

We ran into technical problems related to using VSCodes. Additionally, we encountered language barriers and collaboration issues as all of our teammates are new hackers.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Our team was proud that we were able to apply the concepts learned in our school's AP Computer Science course to a program that can possibly be used by thousands.

What we learned

We learned how to work well with new groups in order to plan and develop our idea.

What's next for HumanitarianConnect

We plan to integrate machine learning to accept a wider range of data into our database as well as to apply computer vision aspects of the program that categorizes the objects of the image to the different types of donations.
