FREE RICE!


Awesome site I just learned about: it's called freerice.com. It tests your vocabulary and donates rice. For every word you test yourself on, the site donates 20 grains of rice through the United Nations World Food Program. This is so fun and a great way to help fight hunger without leaving home! They even show you how many grains of rice you've donated in a rice bowl graphic next to the words.

I checked it out on Snopes.com and it's true; the advertisers at the bottom of each page are the ones who pay for the rice.

I just donated 620 grains of rice! The word that stumped me? Girder= beam, who knew? Not me! Anyhow it’s fun and if you get a break in your day, why not?
