You can donate rice for the poor peoples by simply playing an online game. You don't have to pay money or give any other efforts. Simply play the online game and the hungry peoples would get the rice for free from the United Nations World Food Program (WFP). Also, by playing this game you will learn English vocabulary for free!
So, how this works?
1. Go to:
http://www.freerice.com/ and on the home page you will see a word with
four meanings.
2.Click any of the four meanings that you think is the best definition of
the word.
3. a) If you answer is correct, you just donated 20 grain of rice for the
hungry people of the world.
b) If your answer is wrong, the correct answer will be
displayed.
4. You will see another word on the screen with four choices and follow
again from step 2.
You can play as long as you wish and every time you answer correctly, 20 grains of rice would be donated to the United Nations World Food Program (WFP). On the right hand side of the screen you will see how many grains you are donating.
Who pays for the
donated rice?
The rice is paid for by the advertisers whose names you see on the bottom of
the vocabulary screen. This is regular advertising for these companies, but
it is also something more. Through their advertising at FreeRice, these
companies support both learning (free vocabulary for everyone) and reducing
hunger (free rice for the hungry). We commend these companies for their
participation at FreeRice.
