The Ice Bucket Challenge, sometimes called the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is an activity involving dumping a, bucket of ice water on someone's head to promote awareness of the disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and encourage donations to research to The Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis association (ALSA).
The Ice Bucket Challenge rules:
Within 24 hours of being challenged, participants have to record a video of themselves in President and CEO continuous footage. First, they are to announce their acceptance of the challenge followed by pouring ice into a bucket of water. Then, the bucket is to be lifted and poured over the participant's head. Then the participant can call out a challenge to other people.
The challenge first received increased media attention in the United States on June 30, 2014, when personalities of the program Morning Drive, which airs on weekdays, televised the social-media phenomenon, and performed a live, on-air Ice Bucket Challenge.
As we globally watch thousands of people, including celebrities pour icy water over their heads, have we actually really researched who this truly benefits?.

| How your donations are spent |
Without touching on the subjects of animal testing, the use of embriotic stem cells or the water shortage currently being experienced in countries far far away, another issue has popped up. A scandal, already fairly publicised throughout activist social media, that would begin with Operation Paperclip, yep you got it! ALSA is dancing with the dark side of CIA, giant Pharma corporations and Nazi scientists.
A little information on ALSA for those who are interested in knowing what happens to the donations sent to this COMPANY. http://www.alsa.org/
For starters as stated ALSA is a company, a Non-governmental No profit organisation type, it is not a a registered charity, it is an organisation, it seems that this organisation is in bed with quite a large list of giant bigwig Pharma corporations and organisations.

Now if you were to research some of these corporations and organisations that have shook hands with ALSA, then you would find rather a lot of politicians, CEO's and giant Pharma companies will be found.
The most disturbing organisations to pop up is Merck & Co, Inc, this is when the CIA and Nazi involvement is noted.
OPERATION PAPERCLIP AND MERCK. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip

Merck admits putting cancer viruses in vaccines
George W. Merck is a well known participant of the widely publicized Operation Paperclip, After World War II, the U.S. military hired sixteen hundred former Nazi scientists and doctors, including some of Adolf Hitler’s closest collaborators, including men responsible for murder, slavery, and human experimentation, including men convicted of war crimes, men acquitted of war crimes, and men who never stood trial. http://www.counterpunch.org/2014/02/21/operation-nazification
General Reinhard Gehlen was Hitler’s Chief of Intelligence against Russia. Upon arriving in Washington D.C. in 1945, Gehlen met extensively with President Truman, General William “Wild Bill” Donovan, Director of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) and Allen Dulles, who would later become the stalwart head of the CIA. Gehlen returned to West Germany in the summer of 1946 with a mandate to rebuild his espionage organization and resume spying on the East at the behest of American intelligence. So it is no surprise to find the CIA has behaved like the Nazis.

November 22, 2011: Justice Department Announces Nearly $1 Billion Civil and Criminal Resolution with Merck Sharp and Dohme Over Promotion of Vioxx
As part of the settlement, Merck has also agreed to enter into an expansive corporate integrity agreement with the Office of Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services, which will strengthen the system of reviews and oversight procedures imposed on the company. Although Vioxx is no longer in the marketplace, and hence poses no risk of misuse to the public, this ongoing monitoring of Merck’s conduct is aimed at deterring and promptly detecting similar conduct in the future.
As you can see a pattern has formed that stinks of corruption and disturbing elitist agenda.
ALSA has a Corporate partnership with Merck & Co, Inc.
Merck & Co, Inc. clearly are a part of the Nazi/CIA Operation Paperclip.
Chucking water over your heads in a bid to gain advertisement for a COMPANY that rolls with the likes of CIA and Nazism doesn't feel very charitable from this position.
STOP & THINK.
The Corporate-NGO Partnerships Barometer 2011, published by corporate social responsibility firm C&E, also shows that 95 per cent of charities said access to funds was their main benefit from such partnerships.
