The challenges the Ministry addressed to us

In the immediate aftermath of the war's outbreak, the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine acted with unparalleled urgency to create a platform to aid those in dire need. A product was swiftly developed that, despite its imperfections, succeeded in fulfilling its fundamental mission: to connect those in need with those able and willing to help.

‍

Our primary responsibility was to bolster the platform's stability and to rectify the issues hindering its proper functionality. We understood the urgency of the situation, and our commitment was to enhance the platform's effectiveness in delivering the vital support needed in this unprecedented crisis.

Given the platform's rapid construction under pressing circumstances, certain deficiencies were inevitable. The government agency, despite its best intentions, lacked the resources to ensure the platform's development at an optimal level. Recognizing this, we willingly extended our expertise, volunteering to join the Ministry of Social Development's team.

Uinno's work as part of the EHelp team

As the war's initial months unfolded and we continued our support of the platform, both the Ministry and our team at Uinno recognized the critical need for eDopomoga. It became evident that a more refined approach was necessary, one that would honor the urgency of the situation with a robust solution.

Uinno's experience allowed to redesign the product thoroughly, make it scalable and pleasant, and understandable for users. In fact, we did several things:

Deep refactoring of the Backend

We conducted a deep refactoring of the Backend to improve its structural integrity.

Performance boost of over 30%

We completely rewrote the Frontend, achieving a performance boost of over 30%. This resulted in a swifter, more responsive product.

Intuitive design, mobile-first approach

We conceived and implemented an intuitive design for the platform. Though crafted as a Mobile-First Web application, we ensured its usability with one-handed operation when accessed via a smartphone.

SEO optimisation

We optimized the platform for search engines, rendering it SEO-Friendly.

Plans for the future

eDopomoga has become a striking testament to the power of digitalization in social and volunteer assistance. In collaboration with the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine, we have crafted a product that has extended a helping hand to countless individuals.

‍

Our vision for eDopomoga's future is both robust and inspiring, and here's a glimpse into our immediate and long-term plans:

‍

Short-Term Improvements: We are keen on introducing enhancements that further streamline assistance. A prime example of this is our plan to develop a subscription service, enabling users to automatically extend support to specific individuals or families on a monthly basis. This feature will foster consistent aid and deepen the connection between helpers and recipients.

‍

Long-Term Ambitions: The Ministry has set its sights on expanding the reach of eDopomoga by sharing our successful model with countries that cater to socially disadvantaged populations. Our aspiration is to see eDopomoga blossom into a global platform, spreading compassion and assistance across borders.

We move forward with optimism, confident that eDopomoga's blend of technology and humanity will continue to make a tangible difference in the lives of people around the world.
