Ready, Set, Walk!!

Chances are pretty good that if you have one or more dogs, you or someone in your family is going to be out and about for a nice long walk with your human / canine pack. So, while you're out there, why not pick up your cell phone and dial up some donations for your favorite local Rescue organization?

"Resqwalk is a mobile app that enables you to raise money for homeless animals and earn prizes every time you go for a walk."


The App is a free download, available on most hand sets and seriously, if you can click, you can help out Rescues with a simple touch. You don’t even need to hold onto your phone to keep the App active. Start the program, select your favorite organization and then click on “Start Walk”. Boom!

On your way out the door, tuck that cell phone into your pocket or treat bag and forget about it until you get back home. The way cool thing is that the App will tell you how far you walked and how long it took you. Challenging your friends and family members to top you is a great way to raise additional funds but you may have to have a chat with Fido about skipping the sniffing stations if you are going for time and distance!

When you have had a particularly amazing ResQwalk, the App encourages you to share your success story on Facebook and Twitter. Super cool. It’s such a great feeling when you post that you walked long and hard and you get those comments and thumbs up! Even better is having people ask you all about ResQwalk and how they can become a part of the program.

And, not only does the App collect information for donations to Rescues, the user is rewarded at the end of each walk. When you check off that your walk is finished, a coupon for goods and/or services pops up on the screen which you can either dismiss or take full advantage of.

This is the perfect App for running clubs, bike riders, hikers, mushers, the list goes on! 

From the ResQwalk Facebook page:

Have an animal at your rescue/sanctuary/shelter that needs a little ResQwalk love? Let us help! We'll share your adoptable on our Facebook, Twitter, and Google + pages. Simply fill out this form: http://goo.gl/GNhMBc    

And, check out this amazing stat: “Over the course of September you guys walked 63,489 miles in support of animal rescues! We made a video showcasing many of the photos you took along the way. The music is a bit of a mushy, but that's just how happy we feel thinking about all the great work you're doing for the animals!”




You have to visit and like their page, there are photo entry contests, coupons for treats, special incentives for different kinds of rescues, App fixes, partnership announcements, AMAZING FB page, go now!

Seriously, I can’t say enough good things about ResQWalk, super easy to use, the funds are provided by ResQwalk partners. Shelters, rescues and YOU get rewarded. Huge win all the way around. What are you waiting for?!
