Laid-Off 'GOOD' Staffers Launch Kickstarter Campaign For New Magazine

On June 1, GOOD Magazine laid off six members of its Los Angeles-based editorial staff for "strategic" reasons. The ousted staffers, including two writers who voluntarily quit, have banded together to launch Tomorrow magazine. The project will be entirely backed on Kickstarter.

The Kickstarter campaign for Tomorrow launched on June 25. The team has raised more than $22K with 28 days left on the fundraising platform. Backers who pledge $15 or more will receive a copy of the issue.

For now, the eight-person team is promising 100 oversize pages of reporting, essays, illustrations and photography. The magazine focuses on "figuring out what's new, what's on the horizon."

"We’re committed to making at least one issue—but we’re open to more," the founders write on Kickstarter. A digital version will likely follow after the print magazine is published in early fall.
