FreeRice.com is a legitimate site founded by John Breen with the aim to reduce hunger around the world. He has also started other sites that tackle other large problems that result from the curse of the fall. The advertisers pay for the food that is donated to those who need it (based on the United Nations World Food Program. All you have to do is guess the right definition for each word shown and you will build up rice in 20 grain increments. So, not only are you feeding the poor, but you are also building your vocabulary and having fun while doing it. It almost feels wrong to be able to help the poor in such a way as this. It seems like you should have to sacrifice something yeah?
HT: Lili Tankersley
You can feed the poor here.
Some questions:
-Do you think this is a good idea?
-What was your vocab. level?
-How much rice did you procure for the hungry?
-Do you think this is as rewarding as sacrificing to provide for those less fortunate? Please explain your answer.

My wife is a few points higher than me.
