(note: The post above seems to have been deleted. For context, it was asking whether this fund was only for games.)
It is. From the website:
"Indie Fund aims to support the growth of games as a
medium by helping indie developers get financially
independent and stay financially independent."
It's founded by a bunch of people who have done pretty well with their indie games. People like Jonathan Blow (Braid), Ron Carmel and Kyle Gabler (World of Goo), and a few others. They're trying to help others do something similar.
