With all the publicity of the ice bucket challenge, I became curious if this was just a fad or was there some tangible benefit. I went to a couple of websites to check. First is the ALS site alsa.org. Through Friday, August 29, The Association has received over $100 million, with donations ranging from under one dollar to $200,000. Next, I wondered how the charity watchdogs rate ALS as a responsible administrator of our money. The parent organization and many of the chapters have four star ratings(highest). charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?keyword_list=als&Submit2=GO&bay=search.results Looks like there is substantial tangible benefit. It will be a fad if most of the 3 million donors dont educate themselves about the disease and continue to support the mission of the ALS organization.
