Inspiration for The LODA Project...

On December 16th, 2012, a tragic event occurred in New Dehli, India. A young girl (23 years old) and her male friend were attacked and sexually abused on a bus. The attack was so violent that she was in extremely critical condition and had to undergo five surgeries as she suffered from brain damage, pneumonia, and abdominal infection. She died on December 29th, 2012. Her name remain unknown, however many call her Damini, which means 'lightning' in Hindi.
This absolute tragedy helps one realize how anyone can be a victim to these sort of horrifying attacks and how it could have been prevented through immediate help. Apparently, they were left outside waiting for help, however no one came to help them. When I heard about this, I simply could not accept the fact that tragic events such as this would continue to happen. How can we stand and watch while someone is in need of urgent help? Then, I imagined how I would react to the situation if one of my loved ones were in the situation and decided that if anyone was in an emergency and informed all of their loved ones of it along with their location, many of them would definitely hurry to the situation. Then, even if I was limited in resources and knowledge as I am a middle school student, I decided along with my parents to act. Hopefully, as we improve the app, these tragedies will diminish.
