Gold World Medal
Best Public Affairs Program
2015 New York Festivals



From the famous to the unknown, many participated in the so-called “Ice Bucket Challenge” last year. Those participated threw pails of icy cold water over their heads all in the name of ALS.
ALS or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis – a not widely known neurodegenerative disease. In the Philippines, there are no figures relating to the disease and research about this is almost non-existent. But some are already enduring the struggles of carrying this deadly disease.  
 
This Monday, June 1, catch this award-winning episode again which  just recently brought home a Gold World Medal  for Front Row  as Best Public Affairs Program at the 2015 New York Festivals.   
 
Titled "ALS", the poignant documentary took viewers beyond the viral Ice Bucket Challenge and showed the real story behind the disease in the eyes of ALS patients and their families.
