The renowned and beloved feminist author Susan Griffin has recently been referred to hospice by her doctor and we are raising funds to support her end-of-life care. Susan has been living with Parkinson's Disease for many years and her symptoms are now so severe that she is unable to work and care for herself.

The funds we collect are fully designated for caregivers and other medical and life needs she has at this time. Our goal is to keep her as comfortable as possible and ensure she has the quality of care she deserves, having given the world so much over the course of her life.

Her pioneering work "Woman and Nature" helped launch the movement of feminist literature that connected the political and the personal, the mind and the body, ecology and spirit. Having written 20 books, she has continued to be a leading and poetic voice in the overlapping worlds of feminism, ecology, politics, and literature. As she lives out the final months of her life, we are calling on you to generously support an artist who has given so much of herself to the world so that she can receive the care and comfort she so deserves.
