This makes absolutely no sense. How does making people aware of one disease [ALS] take away from awareness of people dying from unclean water?

Awareness, or better worded, knowledge, is something that a person is not limited of.

Now if you want to make the argument that raising money for ALS could potentially take money away from other issues/problems/fundraisers, then you could make that arguement. But I don't think that anyone would argue putting money toward ALS is a bad use of money compared to using it for another cause.

Also, awareness of an illness or topic, or "talk" as you call it, is never a bad thing. Again, people don't have a limit to how much knowledge they can have so the more people that are aware of an disease or illness, the better. And in general, the more people that are aware of ALS, odds are the more people that will end up donating (Reportedly $21 million more raised during time period this year compared to last year).
