Abstract

The ALS Association's Ice Bucket Challenge became a global phenomenon this past summer, raising more than $115 million to heighten awareness of the progressive neurodegenerative disease and support scientific research in hopes of finding a cure. Heather Linford, community engagement and support manager at Blackbaud's everydayhero, said a number of factors contributed to the campaign's success, and although most nonprofits will probably never launch such a far‐reaching initiative, it's a good idea to prepare for a day when your organization's project might go viral.
