I fully agree with this. It's nothing to with donating to help a cause, it's just a social fad.

A LOT of people I know have done it and they brag like

"OMG I DID ALS ICE BUCKET I CARE SO MUCH!!"
then I'd ask them --
"What does ALS stand for? How much did you donate?" and of course I get the reply --
" ALS means something?! and I didn't donate, I did the ice bucket challenge though! "

And that's why I can't stand this. I remember back in the day ( like 2 months back ). when people were doing this AND donating. Now people just do the bucket and that's it. They don't have a clue what ALS is, what it does, what is means etc. It just makes me wanna slap them repeatably.

It was good at first, now it's being used for attention , Personally I wouldn't do it myself.
