Live demand
What's needed most, right now.
Open requests across the platform, counted by blood type. Not a projection: the real current picture, updated every time you load the page.
Why it matters
Blood saves lives in ways people don't always see.
Blood can't be manufactured. It only comes from people who choose to give it, and in Uganda the need never pauses.
- 01
Sickle cell patients
Many rely on regular transfusions just to manage the condition, not only in emergencies.
- 02
Safer childbirth
Severe bleeding during childbirth is a leading cause of maternal death. A ready blood supply changes outcomes.
- 03
Severe malaria in children
Severe malaria can cause dangerous anaemia in children, and transfusion is often part of emergency treatment.
- 04
Trauma and surgery
Accidents and emergency surgeries can need blood on short notice. DamuLink exists to close that gap in time.
Blood collection and distribution in Uganda is coordinated nationally by the Uganda Blood Transfusion Service (UBTS). DamuLink is an independent platform built to help donors and patients find each other faster. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by UBTS.
Every donation can help save more than one life. DamuLink exists so the right donor hears about it in time to matter.Our mission

Our vision
Starting in Uganda. Built to scale across Africa.
DamuLink launched across Uganda's four regions. The same network model, real-time matching, campaigns, lab results and community recognition, is built to extend to any country where donors and patients need a faster way to find each other.
