I did the #ALSIceBucketChallenge but the most important part is that everyone donates: alsa.org/donate—

Although there isn’t much new to report on the Ice Bucket Challenge front, one UFC notable finally got in on the action – and unlike some other participants, he did it right.
UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre took up the challenge today. Check out the video above.
As a reminder, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge goes like this: If challenged, you either dump a bucket of icy water on yourself, or you make a donation to the ALS Association (or both). Unlike some other participants, St-Pierre clearly loaded up on the ice, which produced a rather funny reaction in the above video.
Once completed, you get to challenge three people to do the same. In St. Pierre’s case, he went with martial artists/actors/idols Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme, as well as Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard.
St-Pierre (25-2 MMA, 19-2 UFC), the UFC’s former longtime welterweight champion, vacated his title and announced a break from competition following a November title win over Johny Hendricks. In March, he said a torn ACL would likely keep him out of action until 2015.
