I think the ice bucket challenge is a good idea and concept but the overall execution is becoming a different animal to tackle. I believe it has a specific purpose and awareness since there has been almost a 39 million dollar increase of charity funds towards ALS disease. I feel that the challenge was a good starting idea to bring awareness to the disease but it has blown more into a game of tag then a helpful way of awareness.
