Let's help feed the world! |
At Freerice.com, playing a vocabulary game fills your bowl of rice, which is then donated to feed the hungry. Sponsor ads are present on the site.
According to Snopes.com, this is legitimate, and the food is donated. It is also a good game for improving your vocabulary. Be sure to have time to spare -- once you start, you won't want to stop! |
