Debbie Wallace, center, dumps a bucket of ice water on her head along with her coworkers as they participate in an Ice Bucket Challenge at the Woodruff Institute in Naples, FL on Tuesday, August 19, 2014. Wallace, a physician assistant at Woodruff, lost her brother Chester to ALS two weeks before and challenged her coworkers in the challenge. The Ice Bucket challenge began on social media on July 29 to benefit ALS or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Participants dump a bucket of ice water over their heads, record it and nominate someone else to do the same. If the person nominated doesn�t comply or fails to record their video within 24 hours, they must donate cash to benefit ALS research. Between July 29 and Aug. 16, The ALS Association and its 38 chapters have received $11.4 million in donations. (Photo by Scott McIntyre/AP Photo/Naples Daily News)
