I was challenged by Sara Compton to do the Ice bucket Challenge – I am honored to accept this challenge - but before I do I wanted to say a few words - Please take the time to look at these links and see why so many are doing this. This is a GREAT cause Why the ice bucket challenge? Where did this start? https://youtube/watch?v=yCoKB_tU9ng How can I donate – or learn more about ALS - alsa.org/news/archive/als-ice-bucket-challenge.html Is this challenge really helping? forbes/sites/matthewherper/2014/08/19/think-the-ice-bucket-challenge-is-stupid-youre-wrong/ If you want to keep your money local to your area to provide services to those who have been diagnosed go to alsa.org/community/ Select “chapters” and your state. – click “visit website” - Then scroll to find where to donate – this goes to your area. Each site is different from here. To all of my friends you do not need to be challenged to donate. I challenge Rachel & Neil Adams, Thomas Alma Hale, James Hale, Rebecca Williams Orr, and Agnes Thell. You have 24hrs from the time you get this message to accept the challenge…. Here is our challenge – do the ice bucket AND donate any amount (of your choosing) if you say you can’t afford it I would say even as little as $5 - every little bit helps. Instead of buying a gallon of ice cream use that money to donate. OR you can take the money that you would have spent on ice for your bucket and donate that . – If you don’t want to do the ice bucket then donate $100 – its that easy. We are honored to take the ice bucket challenge and donate as well - On September 2, 2006, our friend, Tim Formigan passed away from ALS– He was the sweetest, kindest person and incredibly healthy before his diagnosis. He was a Martial Arts instructor and in great shape. …….So Tim – we are doing this in your honor - and I bet this makes you laugh.
