Beyond FREE & FUN: Free Rice Game

Charity doesn’t have to hurt. Even if you’ve heard about this and tried it in the past, in this season of giving consider spending a little time (and a little brain power...think you’re good at vocabulary...or math, science, geography, art history?) by playing the Free Rice game on the Free Rice site. For every correct answer, the site donates 10 grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Program. Today I hit 300 grains and got to level 33, and now I plan to play daily through the rest of the month. Wish me luck!

thanks for posting this! Just checked it out and put it on my facebook page. I'm not sure how far 580 grains of rice will take someone, but you have to start somewhere!

Know what you mean but the site says they've donated tons of rice since the program started two years ago. Seems the power is in the numbers of people who play. Who knew? :)
