For each word your get right, 20 grains of rice are donated through the UN World Food Program to help end hunger.

Answer 2

www.freerice.com

It's a very clever idea.

You play a word game.

For every word you get correct they donate 20 grains of rice-through the UN World Food Program- in order to end world hunger.

It's pretty simple.

Answer 3

It's a free word game that is sponsored by advertisers.

You simply decide the best definition for the displayed word.  If you're right, you win some rice.  The rice is paid for by the advertisers, and is distributed to needy populations by the administrator of the website.  

The ads are not prominent - it's about the rice, not them.  And you get to learn some new words.

I've managed to hit level 46.  Get a few words wrong, though, and you drop back down.

Answer 4

It's a site that claims to donate 20 grains of rice to UN World Food Program for each correct asnwer that is submitted by site-goers.  The site tests your vocabulary level with a question and provides multiple choice answers.

Answer 5

It's a site that helps you build your vocab. I tried it few times. Also, the level of difficulty increases as you keep answering right. For every right answer you give, 20 grains of rice is automatically donated to starving people.

Answer 6

its a site created by a dude all the words are taken from SAT so they are very helpful academically too... the concept there is to answer correctly by choosing just a word as the meaning and earn 20 points, no negatives =]

its UN approved so you can be sure that your effort is not being wasted... having 20,000 points makes for a meal... the best way of scoring more is answering the first 4 questions incorrectly that will take you to level 1 and so words there are very easy and its child's play scoring... that's a trick i use! =] happy donating!
