Can someone explain what the ice bucket challenge exactly does?
So i know it's to raise awareness for people with ALS, but the challenge says if you don't do the challenge you have to donate $100...Wouldn't the $100 be more helpful than the actual challenge itself..I don't get it..
I understand the whole afford thing but i see kids buying sneakers and other things for $100 but can't donate for a fundraiser..

The challenge is to raise awareness for ALS. If you get nominated you can either poor ice cold water on yourself AND donate $10 or pay $100. Most people forget about the $10 you are obligated to pay if you dump water in yourself. The foundation needs to get money somehow.

Not everyone can afford $100...plus it is the aspect of being a part in this fundraiser that also adds to its popularity.
