The Daily Spring

The Daily Spring is a United States-based news and lifestyle publication focused on the experiences of tertiary students and South African youth. This small company, with four employees, is owned by The Open Journal Group and operates as a volunteer-based media project. While The Daily Spring generates $50 million in annual revenue, its primary mission is not financial gain but rather community engagement and education. The publication aims to highlight the lives and perspectives of young people through engaging and creative storytelling. Their work emphasizes accurate reporting and advocacy, giving a voice to a generation often overlooked by mainstream media. The Daily Spring's commitment to youth extends beyond its editorial content. As part of The Open Journal Group's public service initiative, The Daily Spring provides training and mentorship to journalism and media students across South Africa. This unique platform allows students to develop their skills, gain practical experience, and connect directly with their peers.
