PBN Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 India’s alternative to the ice bucket challenge involves giving a bucket of rice to the poor and hungry Capitalising on the immense popularity of the ALS ice bucket challenge, an Indian woman has conceived of the rice bucket challenge as a way to encourage charity for the poor. Unlike the ice bucket challenge, which requires the participant to dump a bucket of cold water over their head, the rice bucket challenge asks that participants simply donate a bucket of rice to somebody in need. It is described on its Facebook page as an “Indian version for Indian needsâ€. The challenge is still in its infancy, with the inaugural donation made on Sunday morning. It was conceived by Manju Latha Kalanidihi, a journalist from Hyderabad in central India, and is proving a hit across the country. In fewer than 24 hours, the challenge’s Facebook page has well over 2000 likes. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/introducing-indias-rice-bucket-challenge-9688479.html
