Play and Feed Hangry People


I'm now telling you about FreeRice. FreeRice is a non-profit website run by the United Nations World Food Program.

FreeRice has two goals:

1. Provide education to everyone for free.
2. Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.

Whether you are CEO of a large corporation or a street child in a poor country, improving your education can improve your life. It is a great investment in yourself.

Perhaps even greater is the investment your donated rice makes in hungry human being, enabling them to function and be productive. Somewhere in the world, a person is eating rice that you helped provide. Let's help them together.

The idea of this website is very creative - play game and help hungry people. There're varieties of subjects available at FreeRice for you such as math, vocabulary, science, etc. Choose anyone which you're interesting.

Play the game whenever you'd like. For each answer you get right FreeRice donate 10 grains of rice through World Food Programe to help end hanger. Though 10 grains of rice may seem like a small amount, it is important to remember that while you are playing, so are thousands of other people at the same time.

FreeRice doesn't have the rice to give directly. This is made possible by the generosity of the sponpors who advertise on the site.

The rice is paid for by the banners you see at the bottom of your screen when you enter a correct answer.

When you play the game, banners appear on the bottom of your screen. The money generated by these banners is then used to buy the rice. So by playing, you generate the money that pays for the rice donated to the hungry people.
