Ray and Vi Donovan

Ray and Vi Donovan are the founders of The Chris Donovan Trust, a non-profit organization established after the tragic loss of their son Chris to unprovoked violence in 2001. Using their deeply personal experience, they educate people on the devastating impact of crime on victims, families, and society. They have shared their journey with students, professionals, and offenders, advocating for respect, accountability, and the power of Restorative Justice.

Through their work in prisons, schools, and global platforms, Ray and Vi continue to inspire change, proving that true strength lies not in violence, but in understanding and forgiveness.
