School is keeping me from posting anything recently and it is finished in a couple weeks and then I will resume my posting. However, in my little free time, I go to freerice.com. It is a vocabulary game and every correct answer you get, they donate 20 grains of rice to help world hunger. Its a fun game and it helps your vocabulary, but you are helping the world out just a little bit. 2900 grains of rice equals a pound. Also, one billion grains of rice can feed 50,000 people for 1 day. Right now, they have gotten right over 5 billion.
While it won't solve world hunger, it can help out a few people and you can have fun. But where it really benefits is when we get the word out. So go to this website, have some fun, improve your vocabulary, help out the world, then spread the word out to all your friends and your blogs or websites if you have them and ask them to do the exact same thing. If we get this out enough, we could conceivably reach a billion grains of rice per day, which would make a small dent in hunger, all for about few minutes of people's days.
