free rice

Although not as exciting a headline as free drugs, I still hope that I can draw your attention to Freerice.com.

This web site is a sister site to Poverty.com and has two main goals.

1. Provide English vocabulary to everyone for free.
2. Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.

The site gives you a word, and four possible meanings. For each right answer advertisers on the site will purchase 10 grains of rice to be distributed through the United Nations Food Program. Just a few minutes of play can really add up the grains of rice.

Plus the more you play the more you learn. The vocabulary level goes up and down based on the number of correct or incorrect answers. If you get one wrong, keep playing as your rice total will contine to go up.
