The US Bangladesh Unity Initiative (UBUI), in collaboration with the Bangladeshi community in Houston, TX, hosted the “Concert for Bangladesh” on September 21, 2024, at the University of Houston Student Center Theater to support the victims of the July Uprising.
The event featured powerful musical performances, poetry, and a tribute to the martyrs, bringing together expatriate Bangladeshis in solidarity with those who risked their lives for freedom. Thanks to the generosity of our community, the concert successfully raised $15,000, which has been allocated to medical treatment and rehabilitation efforts for those injured in the July movement—under the supervision of Naripokkho and our UBUI board advisor, Shirin Huq.
Renowned artists and community leaders expressed unwavering support for the wounded, emphasizing the need for continued assistance. UBUI remains committed to standing with Bangladesh’s bravest sons and daughters, ensuring they receive the recognition and care they deserve.
