Give Free Rice

Give free rice to hungry people by playing this vocabulary quiz game: FreeRice.

A word is displayed along with four possible definitions. Pick the correct definition and 10 grains of rice will be donated to the hungry via an international aid organization. The more words you define correctly, the more rice is donated.

If my taking part in this quiz will truly give a hungry person some rice -I'm there.

Edit:  Ok.  Cool.  Got 170 grains there.  Sweet.

Dave: THAT'S THE SPIRIT!  I think that the real value of a game like this is to get us thinking about how much we can do with very little, and how very much we can do if we decide to do SOMETHING.  Thanks for playing…!!!  :)

That was fun! I stopped at 1,620 grains, cause I’ve gotta go do something else, but I’ll be back, and I’ll send MORE people!
