On this site for every vocab word you get correct they donate 20 grains of rice through the United Nations. Yeah you have to play it awhile for that to add up to anything but it's quick and easy. And free.
Free Rice |

| I agree it's addictive. I'm up to 1,000 grains of rice (I play a few rounds then do something, then come back) |

| I'm going to tell my students about it. My colleagues and I always complain that they lack vocabulary. It seems like a good way to learn new words and do something charitable at the same time. |

It indicates that the revenue of us seeing the ads pays for rice. Who knows though. I'll try and figure it out today. |
