The magazine encompasses a range of topics from community-building to health and wellness to international development. It features thought-provoking essays and art that consider cutting-edge sociocultural tendencies and initiatives for their added value to our daily lives and to the global community. ‘The Intentional’ “’The Intentional’ Kickstarter Project Launched to Fund First Issue A campaign through Kickstarter.com will fund the launch of the first issue, which includes the printing costs, the production of a quality web site, fair wages for staff, and launch events slated for Washington, DC and New York, NY. After the first issue the magazine’s goal is to be self-sustaining. The first issue is expected to publish in September 2012. Each issue will be around 70 pages in length and will be presented as a quality print product. The magazine’s web site features articles and projects for the upcoming issues, as well as a platform for readers to connect, but is not a substitute for the printed magazine. Submissions in the form of fiction and non-fiction essays, investigative articles, photography, visual art, and “anything else that can be put on paper” will contribute to the conversation. About The Intentional The Intentional is a quarterly print publication that examines innovative trends for intentional living. Featuring articles & art that explore quality of life. The Intentional is the brainchild of passionate twenty-something advocates for change who, like so many of their peers, just couldn’t get a break to effectuate said changes. The intention was in place; the means were not. We are a group of enterprising altruists - people who are actively cultivating personal awareness of potential and existing opportunities to create positive impact in the world. We are skeptical of many of the values that were instilled in us, and so we are questioning everything we were always told was true. Some of the writers enjoy successful careers, while others do not, but regardless they are all searching for their true north - what it is that really matters - in one way or another.
