There's a new app that enables you to donate to the Portage Animal Welfare Society without even spending a penny.

The new ResQwalk App is out and PAWS has signed up to be a part. Marketing Director Christine Dack explains the details of the app.

"It's ResQwalk and for every mile you walk money gets donated to PAWS. It works in a percentage wise, at the beginning of the month ResQwalk gets money from corporate donors and depending on the percentage of miles that your organization has walked, they'll pay you for that."

She says ResQwalk gets their money through corporate donors, which is then distributed to organizations that have people signed up.

"So far we've gotten $31.94 and that's for just over 4000 miles walked. It's not bad but there's not really a whole lot of people using it yet so if we get more people using it we can get more money. You just download it on your phone so if you're walking and playing Pokemon go or riding your bike -- as long as you're not going over 13 kilometres an hour -- it should register."
