Move Past Ice Bucket Challenge As RUBBLE Bucket Challenge Gets Introduced



The Ice Bucket Challenge was launched recently as way to raise awareness and funds for The ALS Association, ever since its introduction, everyone from Bill Gates to David Beckham has completed the Challenge - and nominated famous friends to take a drenching too.

Now residents of  war torn Gaza have launched their own version of the internet craze in order to raise awareness of the
desperate conditions facing many living in the conflict-stricken territory. But instead of using buckets of water, they tip rubble out of a bucket over their heads.

The Palestinian journalist by name Ayman al Aloul, who posted the first Rubble Bucket Challenge said: 'I have to do something and to send a message all over the world about Gaza.'

The Rubble Bucket Challenge has now taken off on Facebook and Twitter, where users have shown their support by posting videos along with the tags #RemainsBucketChallenge #rubblebucketchallenge and #dustbucketchallenge.
