The UN World Food Program (WFP) has created a website devoted to vocabulary building! For every correct answer, 10 grains of rice are donated. How? Corporate banners show up on the screen for every correct answer, and the money generated from the banners helps pay for the rice.
From the website:
“So by playing, you generate the money that pays for the rice donated to hungry people...consider that in its first five months, FreeRice generated enough rice to feed more than one million people.”
It’s a win-win game—why not try it today?
Like to know another way to get involved in eradicating world hunger?
www.thehungersite.com.
An initial visit encourages you to click on the “Click here to give—it’s FREE” button. Immediately, you’re told you’ve “given the value of 1.1 cups of food to the hungry.” From the website: “On average, over 220,000 individuals from around the world visit the site each day to click the button. To date, more than 300 million visitors have given more than 500 million cups of staple food.” You can help further by shopping for fair-trade & handmade items at their store.
