Link to Free RiceFree Rice is a site that seeks to “Give free rice to hungry people by playing a simple word game.”

Free Rice has two goals:

  1. Provide English vocabulary to everyone for free.
  2. Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.

The game is very fun and challenging, take it for a spin.
