Inspiration

"One Last Kick" was born out of a profound desire to empower terminally ill individuals with the opportunity to make a meaningful and compassionate choice as they approach the end of their lives. It stems from a deep recognition of the importance of organ donation and the common wish among individuals to leave behind a lasting legacy by bestowing the gift of life upon others.

What it does

"One Last Kick" is a web application that empowers terminally ill individuals to make thoughtful and personal decisions regarding organ donation. It provides a comprehensive platform where users can:

  • Create a Personal Profile: Users can establish a profile containing their personal information and medical history.

  • Select Recipients: Users can choose specific individuals, be it family members, friends, or even strangers, to be the beneficiaries of their organs.

  • Express Their Wishes: Users can articulate their preferences regarding which organs they would like to donate and specify the circumstances under which they wish to do so.

  • Facilitate Connections: The platform facilitates communication between donors and recipients, via mail, more options will be included in the future.
