Ice Bucket Challenge is a worldwide campaign to raise awareness and gather funds for research about Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or ALS. It is a disease that affects nerve cells from the brain down to the spinal cord. The disease causes paralysis and death. As of this time, there is no cure yet for ALS.
