A couple of months ago, Bailey Schroeder contacted me about an Indiegogo campaign for her project - ResQwalk, an iOS mobile app that enables animal lovers to raise money for animal rescues and shelters, and earn cool rewards, every time they go for a walk. The purpose of the campaign is to raise money to fund the app’s initial donation pools.  I asked Bailey to please let me know when the app was available and good news...that time is now!  Exciting times for a pet lover whos passion for helping homeless animals has led to this creative and impactful app.

When asked how the app came to be, she responded:

"As the mom of a rescue dog named Charlie, I know how passionate people are about helping homeless animals. The problem is that we often don’t have the time to foster or volunteer – or the money to donate as much as we’d like to. So, I thought to myself: what if I could create a way to give all these people who want to help, an opportunity to do so without costing them a dime or asking them to alter their daily routine? Could it be done? Yes! By rewarding people for walking. We all do it every day and now – with the help of generous sponsors – animal lovers and rescue advocates can earn money for their favorite organization just by walking." 

How does ResQwalk work?   The video explains it all.  It's a simple app.  And brilliant!

Be sure to check out their website www.resqwalk.com and download the app in the App Store. It's FREE!   You can also LIKE them on Facebook for news and updates. 

Thank you Bailey for creating such a cool AND worthwhile app, one that will help animals everywhere.
