Free Rice is a vocabulary game that allows you to partner with the World Food Programme and its corporate sponsors such as AT&T, Citi, DirecTV, and Volkswagon. Your mission is to feed the hungry. The game helps you do something positive in your idle time.
Right now, the crisis in Somalia and the Horn of Africa threatens the lives of 12 million people, and tens of thousands of children have already died of starvation. The United Nations expects the famine emergency to persist for several months and the number of people needing help to go up by 25%. The World Food Programme is on the front lines in addressing the immediate food security needs of refugees.
In the video below Brian Williams talks to the game's creator and explains more. You can play Free Rice by visiting the website.
