Remember the HarlemShake? The IceBucketChallenge? The current meme du jour is #mannequinchallenge. And charity staff are already embracing it.

You might have seen the Hillary Clinton campaign team join in on board their aircraft yesterday. Charity staff are joining in as well.

They don’t include fundraising calls to action, although the JDRF version promotes a fundraising event. But I’m sure we’ll soon see a charity doing a version that does just that.

We’ll add more here as we spot them.
