The Hunger Site





This is pretty similar to Freerice.com except that you don't have to play a game to donate the food.

Click this link:
http://www.thehungersite.com/clickToGive/home.faces?siteId=1

and there will be a yellow box that says "Click here to give - its FREE". click this and sponsors will donate 1.1 cups of food to malnourished children around the world.

It says to click it daily, so I'm not sure if that means you can only click once per day. I just tried it twice in a row and it seemed to work.

Please check this out, it is even less work and time than freerice.com, although freerice is fun!

Build Your Vocabulary by Donating Rice!



This is an amazing site. If you are ever bored or looking for something to do, this is it. It is a vocabulary building "game" where you are given a word and then four choices for synonyms. Each time you get a question right, you donate 10 grains of rice to the World Food Program which distributes the rice to hungry people across the globe.
