Ice Bucket Challenge

[Chad32]

The American Heart Association probably gets more donations as well. From Gaijin Goomba's video, apparently there isn't even treatment for this disease. They just give you some medicine to ease the pain as you die.

Are you meaning to say that people taking the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge are also donating to the AHA, or some other charity?



I'll betcha they're not.

They're either 1) doing the bucket, 2) donating to ALS research (that is, after all, what the IBC is all about) or 3) donating to ALS research and doing the bucket.

My bet is that most people are only doing (1).

No, I was responding to you saying you would rather donate towards something that kills more people per year. I was saying there are likely already many more donations to that because it's more well known and deadly. That doesn't mean we should neglect a disease that doesn't actually have a treatment.
