Why the ALS Challenge is an Ideal Fit for Parents
Let’s take a moment to appreciate how social media can really make a positive impact, like with the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. For those who might not be in the loop, this challenge encourages folks to dump cold water over their heads to raise awareness for ALS, then tag their friends to do the same. If they decline the challenge, they’re encouraged to donate instead.
Since July 29, the ALS Association has raked in a whopping $5.5 million for research on Lou Gehrig’s disease, a massive jump from just $32,000 during the same time last year. It’s incredible to witness people generously contributing or spreading the word about a disease that often flies under the radar. Seeing participants from all corners of the globe come together? Truly inspiring! For parents, this whole movement is just about the best thing ever.

In summary, the ALS challenge not only raises awareness and funds for a critical cause, but it also fosters a sense of community. As parents, participating in such initiatives teaches our kids about compassion and the importance of giving back. Plus, it’s a fun way to engage with friends and family while making a difference.
