Poverty.com Hopes to End World Hunger, and Make You Smarter, with FreeRice.org

January 21, 2008

We all want to do our part to feed the hungry, but most of us are either too busy or just too lazy to get off our butts and pitch in. So Poverty.com and its sponsors are here to help with FreeRice.org – a simply beautiful site that turns giving into a game. The site has two goals, 1) provide English vocabulary to everyone for free, and 2) help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free. One correct answer equals 20 grains of rice. Over 15 billion grains of rice have been donated since its launch in October ’07. Check it out.
