Orphanage Management Using IPFS and Hyperledger Fabric

In a typical orphanage, records are usually kept for future reference, retrieval, reproduction, and easy management. The daily activities, schedules and events are also recorded. For instance, if there is need to know the population of the orphanage/ children home, one may need to count the records obtained from different files that contain papers with information. The main objective of this project was to design and develop a new system of managing information in these orphanages. The system helps in reducing paperwork and enhance efficiency in record keeping since the existing one uses manual keeping i.e. use of files and papers. It also reduces costs incurred in purchasing files and papers for individual entities. The system manages records of children, guardians/doctors, donors, adoptive-Guardian and adoption. The system allows the user to add, modify, delete the records.
