Not a Joke – IndyHall Saves Lives
Filed under: Announcements, Community Support
Thanks to everyone who played along with yesterday’s little April Fools joke. IndyHall is NOT sold to anyone. Not even close. We love our space, we love our community, and its valuable beyond measure of money.
Just to show you how ridiculously awesome this group is, 22 people from IndyHall and supporting organizations (including WebLinc and Philadelphia CityPaper) donated blood on this past Saturday. Thanks to the push from friend of IndyHal, Reed Gustow, we had a great turnout AND this awesome video documenting the experience.
HUGE thanks to everyone who came out and supported. Even the few who could not donate for various reasons, we’re so grateful for your willingness to donate. And a big thanks to the Red Cross staff who ran the event efficiently and professionally, despite the guitar hero going on in our upstairs lounge. I’m fairly confident that was a first for them.
The other huge benefit to this event is the new configuration for IndyHall. New configuration? We’re not posting pictures just yet…you’re going to have to stop by to see it yourself!

I would have donated if I wasn’t on medication.
Even though I gave blood, I’m sure you are actually feeding vampires on that stuff. Nothing you can say will convince me otherwise.
Also, it’s hella weird to be talking web, community, and hacking while laying on a table with a machine stuck in everyone’s arm.
It was cool, and I’ll sign up again next time you run one of these.
