Feedback from the Judges:
Access to healthcare is an important issue. This is an innovative way to address the need.
I'd love to see some ideas about how the goods might be provided to keep the store stocked up.
The application's store layout is well done. It gives us a clear understanding of how things will work from the users' perspective.

I can see how this app could be a life changer for many. Being able to get basic health supplies for free is very important. Many people make the choice between food, shelter and health. Health is usually the last choice. This app will open these supplies to many in need which will change many lives.
This app would be so important in low income communities where (1) people generally lack access to healthcare and (2) the cost of healthcare deters many when they do have access. I could see this app also solving the challenge of people refusing to seek care because of embarrassment or public perception e.g. a young adult getting a pack of condoms. Your idea makes it easy for people to make the choice to put their health first. You clearly laid out the user experience but I would have liked to see details on how the user would receive their order. I could also see this expanding to so many healthcare products e.g. over the counter dental kits or even prescriptions.

This seems like a good idea except for the fact that, where will you get your medicine? Medicine is something that is prescribed and costs a lot, but unless you sell your medicine, you won’t get the money for the medicine unless your are being funded, could you maybe elaborate on how you get you medicine? But overall, this idea is pure at heart and seems like a very good idea.

Your app is great because it embodies a spirit of 'mutual aid' - where communities help each other solve our problems. Great work!
