Beyond throwing icy cold water on our heads, Act Global is also supporting ALS research through donation. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord, and eventually the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement is lost. Learn more about ALS and the #icebucketchallengehere.
According to a press release by the ALS Association, “As of Tuesday, August 26, The ALS Association has received $88.5 million in donations compared to $2.6 million during the same time period last year (July 29 to August 26).”

The synthetic turf football pitch at Olympic Stadium was expertly installed by Carpell Surfaces, and features the latest Xtreme Turf artificial turf system from FIFA Preferred Producer Act Global. This latest technology in artificial sports turf uses an exclusive diamond dual-fiber blend from Bonar Yarns. The Xtreme Turf DX60 system offers the most resilient grass-like fibers, proven by extensive wear testing. The synthetic turf blend provides a natural appearance, while offering optimal performance, comfort and durability. Based on FIFA Laboratory Test results, DX60 achieves high marks on all measures.
The field passed rigorous laboratory and field testing to earn a FIFA Two Star Certification, in which criteria are based on the benchmarks of natural grass fields in good condition. This ensures that artificial turf pitches built to these guidelines will mirror the playing characteristics of natural grass.
