As a way of honoring and appreciating our frontline healthcare workers during this pandemic, the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) Houston unit, has dedicated two billboards in the Houston vicinity to them. The billboards were put up on May 13th, 2020 and will be in place for 4 weeks. The message stresses the sanctity of one human life; one life saved equals saving all of humanity and the selfless acts of compassion and commitment of our healthcare workers. ICNA Houston would like all those on the frontline to know that they are the real heroes of COVID-19.
