Als Ice Bucket Challenge Top Celebrities

Sometimes the Internet is an amazing place. While we can all roll our eyes at the latest cat video gone viral, a recent trend in online video feeds, Instagram videos and on Twitter has seen raised awareness for ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s Disease. The now-famous ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has people both famous and not going online to ‘challenge’ others in their network to donate money toward finding a cure for the debilitating disease, or have a bucket of ice water poured on their heads. The assumption is that most people donate anyways, and the fear is that the actual cause is getting a little lost in the shuffle here. But similar to the trend of ‘It Gets Better’ videos from a few years back, which targeted bullying and homophobia, the world is a better place with these videos in it. And there are already so many! Here is a guide to the most YA-centric of the bunch:
