FreeRice.com is a website that helps people who can't afford rice to eat. It uses a vocabulary game, very simple. They will just give you a word, and you'll have to click on the word that has the closest meaning to the word that they provide.
For every 3 consecutive correct answers you choose, your vocabulary level will increase by one. As it increases, the words will get harder and harder. For every answer you get correct, you will donate 20 grains of rice to charity.
But for every question you get wrong, your vocabulary level will decrease by one.
Every time you reach hundreds, your rice bowl will be empty. The amount of rice would be recorded on the sides of the bowl. Right for hundreds, and left for thousands. Every time after you get correct, it will show you how many grains of rice you have donated.
When you reach 10,000... SOMETHING will happen. Find out yourself! Go and donate! Hurry up and stop reading this part of text! Because the text is getting smaller and smaller until you can't read it.. ... ..... .. .... . .. . ..
Actually, 1 kilogramme of rice has about 40,000 grains, and every 1 kilogramme of rice went up by only $0.30, so if you donate 10,000 grains of rice you will be helping other people save $0.70!
If you want to see the total number of grains of rice donated every month, every day, or the total number of grains that have been donated, just click on "TOTALS". However, the "day" count ends every month, so if you want to see the amount donated every day, rush to the website now, before the month ends!
The most number of grains of rice per month was donated on December 2007, when 6,948,988,060 grains of rice was donated, probably because the holidays were there, and most people can use their computers!
