Let me read you the blog:
Ice Bucket at Mzansi…..
The ice bucket challenge, Mhhhhhh…. it really did achieve its goal because of it did hit South-Africa by storm. I mean everyone was participating in it going to grandmothers, grandfathers, mothers, children even celebrities throughout the globe Tjo this was so big.
The Point for #HashTag
The
point for #hashtag is really simple for me, let me just tell you that it was
just meant to raise awareness about the disease #ALS amyotrophic literal sclerosis. But us beautiful South-Africans the #hashtag is simple we just need to
put this #hashtag #MNDIceBucketChallenge I promise you, that #hashtag really
did go viral just continue and sustain the momentum.
The rules for MND #IceBucketChallenge are simple….
Ø Just capture a video of
yourself doing the challenge J
Ø You can upload your video
on social media J
Ø You can make it more fun by
challenging your friends, family or your partner J
Ø The most important thing
you can do is to donate through the #MND.

Who, Who, Who I Mean Who Started the #IceBucketChallenge…..
Well
I have the answer for you. The person who started the #IceBucketChallenge is
still young. Mhhhhh okay enough about waiting, it is Pete Frates (29) he got neurodegenerative
disease two years agoL.
The
person that I am talking about is now is unable to talk you might be asking how
does he survives? The answer is clear technology because he uses eye-tacking
technology. I mean the person we are talking about here is unable to eat hence
he does such an incredible initiative…..God bless our world.
All Eyes On Me People, I Mean Celebrities On #MND
Wow
our beloved South-African celebrities did participate on this initiative…but
not all of them. I mean even our Sport Minister Fikile Mbalula.

You Too Can Do It.....
I
think as people from around the world can do this why can’t you….Ahhhh come-on
let’s do this and raise awareness and help our friends and families. Your
participation will be highly appreciated.
The campaign was great and fun. I would like to know is, celebrities that actually participated on the ice bucket challenge internationally did donate money to the awareness. When it came to South Africa were the celebrities and people participating in the challenge did they donate towards the awareness or was it to show support
ReplyDeleteHi, Mashudu thanks for your contribution. Well some of them did donate and some of them where raising awareness about the disease.
DeleteFor charity awareness and contribution as to social responsibility with the aim of conquering such a disease, this campaign does put the sparks on, it is also interesting to see that there are also a number of prominent figures buying into this awareness activity, great way to show support and donation contributing.
ReplyDeleteHi Sizwe thanks for your contribution. I totally agree with you Mr Tsotetsi, some people out there really care about other individuals.
DeleteWow Innocent, this is great. I still say that pete is a good man.
ReplyDeleteHi Ambossador, thank you that you also see that pete frates is beyond being a good man.
DeleteThis initiative was really good and i'm glad that it reached the massive audience that it did
ReplyDeleteDid you take part in the initiative?
Hi Kemp, thanks for your contribution. I personally did not participate in this initiative due to not having adequate time.
DeleteLooking at how the ice bucket challenge is slowly being participated by fewer people do you think that a hype of participating in the ice bucket challenge can be done again to create awareness or is it possible to establish another campaign to create awareness and get people to engage?
ReplyDeleteHi lerato, thanks for your contribution I personally think that the ice bucket is the great way to create awareness around this disease because of many people around the world did participate on it.
