No pun intended (since buckets are poured over people's heads), but it seems that the majority of of the money raised by ALS goes to the charity overheads. I know this is no different from a lot of charities, they need good people at the top, but for only approx a quarter of donations to go to research into cures seems a minimal good use of people's charitable contributions.
