Griefprints is about helping people with their grieving. Radha Stern knows a lot about grieving. Since the murder of her son, Christopher, in 1996, Radha has devoted herself to helping others who have lost a loved one due to a violent crime. She is active in Legal Community Against Violence and the Insight Prison Project, as well as The Compassionate Friends, an organization for parents who have lost a child. 

 Radha is an experienced grant maker, fundraiser, and marketer with extensive volunteer activity over the last two decades, including work with trade organizations, advocacy groups, and victim’s rights programs.

 She is a past member of the Board of Directors for the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation and program officer for a family philanthropic foundation, which supports organizations providing basic services to critical-need populations. Radha also volunteers at the San Francisco Food Bank and the Sausalito Arts Festival Foundation.

 In addition to Griefprints, Radha is a contributor to the inspirational book “Courage does not always Roar: Ordinary Women with Extraordinary Courage,” published by Simple Truths in 2010.

 A native Californian, Radha lives with her husband Gary, and together they have five children.
