InConJunction XXXV - SF&F Convention - InConJunction Charities

Every year InConJunction hosts a charity auction to help benefit causes that are near and dear to the hearts and minds of its organizers. Each year there are two charities that split the proceeds from the InConJunction Charity Auction. This year's charities are Indy Reads, whose mission is to promote and improve the literacy of adults and families in Central Indiana, and the Central Indiana Section of the Society of Women Engineers. The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) is a non-profit educational and service organization and is the driving force that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career aspiration for women. The SWE empowers women to succeed and advance in those aspirations and receive the recognition and credit for their life-changing contributions and achievements as engineers and leaders.

Please click on the links for our charities to find out a little more about them. Remember that both are great causes that use the money to help people in our community and to promote literacy. Please check the programming schedule for the location and time of the charity auction.

And don't forget our annual Robert A. Heinlein Memorial Blood Drive for the benefit of the Indiana Blood Center, Saturday from 9:00am - 2:00pm. Signs will be posted at the convention to direct you to the sign-up and donation area for the blood drive.

The Indiana Blood Center is a vital link in Indiana's health care infrastructure, supplying more than 550 units of blood to more than 60 Indiana hospitals every day. The nonprofit community service organization was founded in 1952 to provide a continuous, safe and adequate supply of blood products and testing services. So lend and arm and help InConJunction hit its annual donation goal. Donating blood is safe, simple and it saves lives.
