Ideas in Motion Media, publishers of ValpoLife.com, PortageLife.com, and LaPorteCountyLife.com, have announced the launch date of their fourth exclusively-positive online community network, NWIndianaLife.com. NWIndianaLife.com will be dedicated to sharing the good news stories of people, organizations, and businesses throughout Northwest Indiana, with a focus on Lake County.
The new online community network, encompassing the website, email newsletter and social networks, will officially launch August 1, 2013. The network will allow users to access the full multimedia experience of stories, events, articles, photos, and videos, all promoting good news throughout Northwest Indiana.
“We are thrilled to be expanding our message of good news west into Lake County,” said Ideas in Motion Media Publisher and owner Chris Mahlmann. “We will be bringing our positive message and enthusiasm for telling good news stories to all of the communities throughout Northwest Indiana.”
NWIndianaLife.com is a network of a website, email newsletter and social media platforms through which users can share their positive stories, encompassing everything from sports photos, church and school newsletters, to stories about people doing good deeds within their community. NWIndianaLife.com is supported by marketing partners that believe in the power of positively connecting people and want to share their own good news.
“Every community has so many good news stories and people that often don’t get shouted as strongly through traditional media,” said Mahlmann. “I know there are thousands of stories in communities like Highland, Hammond, Munster, Griffith, Lowell, Gary, and every other community in the region. We just built a house to put them all under one roof.”
Individuals, organizations, and businesses are encouraged to start sharing their positive stories. If you are interested in sharing, the NWIndianaLife editorial team has begun posting positive stories already. Send an email with your information to share@nwindianalife.com or visit www.nwindianalife.com/share and fill out the “Share” form.
With contributions coming in from over 200 groups and organizations like the South Shore Convention and Visitors Authority, City of Gary, Munster Parks and Recreation Department, Lake Area United Way, Alzheimer Association and Congressman Pete Visclosky, the website is already filled with good news across its business, sports, health, community, and entertainment sections, with photo galleries and videos produced featuring a variety of aspects of life in Northwest Indiana.
