This is a creative way to unfurl ALS awareness via social media and in communities nationwide, says the authorized. As per the expectation the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in spreading all over and is being very popular. All are actively showing their participation. 

Physicist Stephen Hawking has become the latest celebrity to step in the ice bucket challenge craze  but delegated the soaking to his children.

He is in support of the cause as he himself is one of the victim.
