We Have an App for That!!!

In this day of smart phones and computers, WIFCaP is staying on the leading edge of what is modern and what our followers want.

Fundraising is changing and the whole corporate world is seeing the advantage and benefit of using incentive and cause driven marketing.

Sounds high-tech and confusing, but in a nutshell, all it means is that you don't have to take out your checkbook to write donation checks all the time!  You can shop, eat and travel  and even exercise while still helping  your chosen cause all at the same time!

If you have a smart phone, you can donate to WIFCaP by downloading these apps and using them to save money, shop at charity minded stores (big box and local) or to take a stroll with a friend!   The apps are FREE!

What could be better?  Shop - Save - Enjoy - be healthy!   All the while part of your investment towards purchases and your investment in your health is donated to a charity of your choice.  We of course hope you will choose Western Iowa's Feral and Homeless Cat Program!

So take your pick!  Whether you are in the Omaha-Metro area or anywhere around the country, you can help in a fun and painless way!  Businesses what to give part your your expenditures to WIFCaP!  Download the apps from Android app store or AppleStore on your phone!

1. Paid2Save
This one is the most all encompassing app for ALL our fans and friends, no matter where you live!  When downloading use the Reference Code 93241 and a portion of your purchases will come to WIFCaP!  Purchase items online, or use the local offers and coupons and enjoy savings and cash back!   Want double cash back?  A one time fee of $29.95 will get you that for LIFE!  AND $12 of that fee is immediately donated to WIFCaP...this is not an annual fee!

3. TAGG - Together a Greater Good - is limited to the Omaha-Metro area and is growing every day!  The merchants listed with give at least 5%  of your purchase directly to WIFCaP if you have the app downloaded, show the cashier and they "tagg" your purchase!  Its amazing how quickly the funds add up!

4. ResQwalk - Great idea to get you out there walking and help a kitty in the meantime!  Download the app, select Western Iowa's Feral and Homeless Cat Program as your charity and go!  Your miles walked are added to a weekly pool and the funds are divided up at the end of the week and we get a check!  Easy!


So, what is the benefit to WIFCap?  Kathy will say the biggest one is that she can spend more time trapping and helping feral and community cats and less time fund raising!

We hope you will choose at least ONE of these ways to help our cause.   It's easy and fun!  We will be forever grateful and eager to help if you have any questions about how it all works!
