A training course that can make the difference between life & death: Showstop Procedure launches globally
Sep 15, 2025
The goal of Pink Bows Foundation is as simple as it is powerful: to prevent parents around the world from having to go through what the Dubiski Family went through in the aftermath of the Astroworld crowd crush in November of 2021 – when they waited in vain for their daughter, Madison, to return home.
Madison was one of 10 concertgoers – children, teenagers, young adults – who lost their lives that night, but it was her parents who eventually turned the paralysis of tragedy into a force for change. They launched Pink Bows Foundation, named after the pink bows that people had put up next to a picture of Madison at the memorial for the victims of Astroworld.
The way Pink Bows Foundation intends to achieve its goal is by helping to create a global standard for the process of stopping a show.
