While Astroworld Festival's investigation is yet to determine who should be held accountable for the deaths of the 10 concertgoers and injuries of hundreds of people, one of the victim's families chose to look at the brighter side to launch a heartfelt move.
A year after the tragedy, the family and friends of one of the victims who died due to the crowd surge launched a concert safety non-profit organization.
Rolling Stone confirmed that Madison Dubiski's family and friends came together to create the Pink Bows Foundation. It aims to advocate safety in live entertainment events following the fatal event.
Pink Bows Foundation's president and co-founder Peter Remington, who is also a family friend of the Dubiskis, shared the conversation he had with Madison's father, Brian, after the deadly event.
He noted that he and the grieving patriarch started talking about launching the foundation. During the first months of this year, they started working on the details to complete their plan.
"The whole thing with starting this foundation became about Madison and honoring her. But the reality is that nine other kids were killed at that concert. No parent should ever have to worry that their child can go to a concert and never come home, that they'll be trampled to death," he said.
Remington says the foundation aims to set up pink tents at events where attendees can have consultations amid a concert.
They plan to make it work by coordinating with organizers and authorities. By doing so, the foundation members can resolve safety concerns for the concertgoers.
Astroworld Festival Tragedy Should Be a Lesson to Everyone
Elsewhere in his statement, Pink Bows Foundation's CEO said Astroworld left people with questions and lessons, including whether people at the concerts are trained.
Aside from working on the organization, Remington believes that the organizers should also undergo more training. As they advocate safety measures, they will reportedly support the safety efforts at the same time.

Although the foundation is still in its early stages, it already started its mission by selling T-shirts across the country.
The move came weeks after Travis Scott privately settled an Astroworld lawsuit filed against him. The representative of the family of 21-year-old Axel Acosta, Tony Buzbee, confirmed the development on Instagram.
It is just one of the several lawsuits the rapper is currently facing as the probe into the incident continues.
