Do you want to feed the hungry and improve your vocabulary at the same time? Then FreeRice is for you! This food-linked word game put on the Internet a month ago has proved a runaway success and has already generated enough rice to feed 50,000 people.
Give it a try and see how you do? I just donated 500 grains of rice and my vocab level was in the 37-40 range. It's a lot of fun!
The FreeRice site is a viral marketing success story with more than one billion grains of rice donated in just one month to help tackle hunger worldwide. The day it was launched on October 7 just 830 grains of rice were donated. But the Internet community quickly caught on, and on November 8 alone 77 million grains were donated, equivalent to more than seven million correct clicks.
So go ahead and click away. Together we can raise our vocabulary while raising awareness of world hunger.
