I came across a very charitable and yet educational post today. Its titled Fight Hunger While Learning Vocab written by Karl Fisch. It talks about a website called Free Rice that quizes you on vocabulary words and every time you get a word right you donate 20 grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Program.

What matters: This is one of the easiest ways to learn and still help out 3rd world contries. This website is also very easy to work. Its like MAPS questions.They start out with a average question and if you get it wrong they give you an easier question, but if you get it right they give you a harder question. If you get three questions right in a row then you are moved to the next level. There are 50 levels total but its very rare for people to make it past level 48. The website then adjusts itself to your level of vocabulary. Teachers should consider using this website because it will not only teach their students their vocabulary, but it will also help starving people.

What matters to the World: This website could help so many starving people who would do anything to have some food to eat. I hope that this will inform more people of this website because not only is it easy, its also charitable and maybe even fun for some people. We are so blessed to be living in a country that has a stable government, food, and money. So the least we can do is donate rice. This website encourages teachers to teach their students vocabulary also. Also students might go to this website just to help out and do their little part.
