Paralyzed by Police Brutality- Help Donovan Rebuild His Life

Donation protected
On December 7, 2015, Donovan Duran’s life was shattered.
While handcuffed and asking for help, he was violently pulled from a police cruiser — slammed head-first onto concrete — breaking his neck and paralyzing him from the chest down.

Today, Donovan fights to survive with no full-time care, declining health, and overwhelming medical expenses.

He did not deserve this. He does not deserve to be forgotten.

Your support will go directly toward Donovan’s urgent medical needs, daily living support, and giving him a fighting chance at a better future.

Please donate and share. Every single contribution makes a difference.

Donovan’s story is one of unimaginable betrayal and heartbreaking resilience.

After years of fighting a legal battle, he received a small settlement — but it was never enough to cover the lifetime of care he now requires.

Today, Donovan lives without full-time nursing support, struggling every day with mobility, basic needs, and severe pain.

He deserves dignity, independence, and hope. We can help him reclaim it.
