FreeRice.com I recently came across this site, FreeRice.com, which I thought it is very nice and creative. It is nice because you can learn vocabulary and help end the world hunger. The idea is very creative. This is how it works: you go to FreeRice.com and play their vocabulary game, for each question answered correctly 10 grains of rice will be donated by the sponsors to help people living in poverty. It is a win-win situation - you get to play the game, FreeRice get the traffics, advertisers get their exposure, and people get the free rice. If you like the idea, please help to spread out the word. For more details, please read their FAQ page.

    It really is a great idea, I just donated about a 110 grains. I’m Dutch, so a lot of words don’t have any significance to me, but I can still link a lot of words together.

    Thanks for posting this. As for how much “they” are making why it should concern anyone? I know it for a fact that money is donated and people will be fed and to me that is all that matters.

    You could just use a dictionary :P I admit I did that the first time I played. Overall I’ve donated about 2500 grains(500ish from the dictionary, lol. but whatever, its to help the hungry!!)

    they have a group on facebook for anyone whos interested. They’re trying to develop an application for it.

    Do any of you know how many people 10920 grains of rice can serve? Because I am playing currently and I’m just curious to how many people I helped. Also, go to thehungersite.com and you can donate 1.5 cups of rice just by clicking a button! I’m not sure if this is infinite or once daily but it’s still a great site though I think freerice.com is much more fun.

    To make it even more fun, and make more people feel like training on this site to do something good for the world, their should be some kind of highscores, in how much rice someone donated like, on the right hand side of the highscores table your name and on the left how much rice he or she donated plus his total rank: example:

The power of the word, selecting vocabulary definitions, and discovering that we know more words than we think we know……….and the power of giving food……..How fabulous, excellent, hopeful. I have set weekly goals for how many grains of rice to donate….I’ve set 16,000 as my weekly goal. Rock On, FreeRice corporate contributors. Thank you!1
