Improve your vocabulary and help the poor

http://www.freerice.com/

On that site, you answer vocabulary questions, and for each one you answer correctly, the site donates 20 grains of rice to the WFP.

Even if we try not to fall, one day or another we slip even the tinyest fraction, if we didnt, we would never know how to pick ourselves up to keep moving out of all the darkness and trouble that follows us where we go.

Re: Improve your vocabulary and help the poor

Lol, do you think they actually count to make sure they have exactly 20 grains?
Neat idea. Makes me feel like I'm smart and like I'm doing a good thing.

More like, do you think this site genuinely works at all?

I'm treating this with the same skepticism as chain-style emails. "Click here/ reply to as many friends as possible to help salvage barely enough money for my child who has cancer!"

Re: Improve your vocabulary and help the poor

[sub]I've done this before; It was kind of a fad on Neoseeker. It's addicting.

It doesn't really matter if it works or not, anyway. If it does work, great, you've helped the poor. If it doesn't, well, at least you learned some new words. [/sub]
