FreeRice.Com is a website great for helping others from the comfort of your own home. For each answer you get right, they donate 10 grains of rice through the World Food Programme to help end hunger. You can also choose what type of questions you'd like to be tested on (and the level of difficulty they will be) from any of the following.
FreeRice has two goals:
- Provide education to everyone for free.
- Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.
Freerice was founded in October 2007 by John Breen. In March 2009 Mr. Breen donated the site to the UN World Food Programme. In making the donation, Mr. Breen expressed his hopes that Freerice will be able to grow over the coming years, helping to feed and educate as many people as possible throughout the world."

"In countries where rice is a staple part of the diet, World Food Programme provides, on average about 400 grams of rice per person, per day (for families, including children and adults). That is intended for two meals that include other ingredients to ensure a minimum of 2,100 kilocalories per day.
There are about 48 grains of rice in a gram."
That's 19,200 grains of rice needed per person - per day.
