Feed the hungry by playing a game

Posted by tywebb on March 11, 2008 - 11:26 AM

Looking for an online game that will make you feel good about killing time? Play FreeRice, a word game that donates rice to the World Food Programme every time you play.

The website lets users play a word game to donate food to those in need. You get four choices, and for every word you define correctly, 20 grains of rice are donated. It might not seem like much, but if you play for a few minutes, it adds up quickly, and thousands of people play every day.

So far, the site has donated nearly 22 billion grains of rice (Click here to see the daily and monthly totals) since it was created in October, and that's not too bad.
