# #KickEbolaInTheButt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0cbtshDvSU During the recent Ebola scare, a Temple Professor is doing his part in aiding awareness for this deadly disease.  Dr. Thilo Kunkle and Philadelphia Union Midfielder Michael Lehoud, a native from Sierra Leone, teamed up to create a social media challenge. Similar to the online craze, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, the goal is to complete the challenge and post it to social media using the hashtag[ #kickebolainthebutt](https://twitter.com/KickEbolaITButt). The rules of the challenge are simple: 1) Find a partner who will take a shot. 2) Bend over, protect your head, and use a soft ball. 3) Your partner will step 5 meters (yards) away and aims to kick the ball at your butt. 4) If your partner is able to hit your butt, you donate to a charity supporting the fight against Ebola. 5) If your partner misses, your partner donates to a charity supporting the fight against Ebola. 6) The person who bent over can nominate three people to the #KickEbolaInTheButt challenge and ask his partner for a revenge shot. All the proceeds benefit Doctors without borders, a charity helping aid the battle of Ebola.
