Ice Bucket Challenge The origins of the idea of dumping cold water on one's head to raise money for charity are unclear and have been attributed to multiple sources.[14] The most commonly accepted origin credits Pete Frates, a Boston College alumnus who was diagnosed with ALS in March 2012.[15][16] Pat Quinn, a friend of Frates who was diagnosed with ALS in 2013, is also credited with creating the challenge.[17][18] Another friend of Frates, Corey Griffin, has been credited as a "co-founder" of the challenge.[19]
