BURBANK, California (May 12, 2005) – World-renowned Egyptian singer, Iman

El-Bahr Darwish, will be performing this Saturday, May 14, 2005 at a concert

to benefit the victims of the humanitarian crisis in Palestine. Joining Darwish

on stage will be Napoleon, a rap artist formerly of Tupac Shakur’s Outlawz.

The event is being organized by the Southern California Muslim Community,

and funds will be collected by Burbank, CA based charity Islamic Relief USA.

A popular Arabic singer in the Middle East, Darwish is making a tour of major

US cities performing at various benefit concerts. Darwish has already

performed before delighted audiences in New York, Boston, Detroit, and

Milwaukee during his tour.

The ongoing conflict in Palestine has created a humanitarian crisis, preventing

thousands of Palestinian families from living normal lives. Many have lost their

jobs and homes and are forced to live in poverty. According to the United

Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the decline in the well-being and quality of

life of Palestinian children has been rapid and profound.
