FreeRice.com was created by John Breen who also created Poverty.com and The Hunger Site.  These sites are dedicated to increasing awareness of worldwide hunger and giving people a way to make a difference.  At Freerice.com you can practice your English vocabulary through a game and for each question you get right you donate 20 grains of rice to the hungry.  The web site, and the rice is paid for by the advertisements that appear on the bottom of the screen.  So click away!

Does this all sound too good to be true?  Check it out at Snopes.com, UrbanLegends.com, About.com, or Time.com.
