Free Rice

Help end world hunger

Freerice.com is a nonprofit organization that donates rice to many different countries including
Bangladesh, Cambodia, Uganda, Nepal, Bhutan, and Myanmar. How it works is that you learn vocabulary and they give rice. Each time you match a word with a definition you have donated 20 grains of rice. Since this is a nonprofit organization the banners at the bottem with organizations on it will donate the rice you earned and give it directly to WFP. While 20 grains of rice might not seem like a big donation, if you play a while you will have fed quite a few people. Remember, you are not the only one playing. In the first month, Freerice.com fed over a million people. The goal of this company is to stop world hunger. It is so easy to help. I personally have been playing for 5 months. I try to play every day, if not every week. You're being educated and other families get food. Not a bad trade of. :)

Have fun playing!
