Freerice.com is a website that has agreed to donate rice to povert countries.
What it is - and the reason why I'm posting it here - is a Vocabulary game.
For every vocabulary question you get right, they donate 20 grains of rice. I know that's not a lot, but in 20 questions thats 400.
I just did 1000 grains of rice in about 7 or so minutes, so it's not that hard, and you're killing two birds with one stone.
Vocabulary building and world hunger.
So Try it

Actually things like this I think work along the lines of where they decide to give it.

Oh yeah! We should post how many grains we donated on this thread when we do this.
It's quite amazing how much this site has helped in such a little amount of time.
It's only a few months old.

Holy crap Grey Dawn. I think you've got an unfair advantage; knowing latin and whatnot. *glare*

I also have Vista! And I hate it! Also yes, Latin helps a lot. The fact that I don't have a life helps too.
