The ALS Association #IceBucketChallenge is dominating Facebook feeds and quickly working its way across the country to spread awareness and encourage donations to fight ALS. ALS, also commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The cause isn’t completely understood, and there’s no cure or treatment to stop or reverse the disease. This insanely popular viral campaign is creating the stir that the ALS Association needs to step up research in hopes of helping those affected. Bill Gates has accepted the challenge; so has Jimmy Fallon. Carrie Underwood and Justin Timberlake have completed it too. Who’s next? A few members of the AAFMAA team were challenged to help #StrikeOutALS and here’s how it all went down! Have you completed the #IceBucketChallenge?
