I found a website off of bbc.com that will donate 10 grains of rice for every word you get correct. The website is freerice.com.

I'm normally kind of wary about things like this, but it's free to do and all you have to have to join in is a large vocabulary.

The general word score in Jowston seems to be around 40.[/url]

THis is a good site with good intent, but some of their word definitions are really screwy. O_o

I was bored enough to donate 1000 grains of rice. :P

The totals are really impressive, on the 13th of this month 192,744,570 grains of rice were donated. That's a lot of rice.

The rice is given to the United Nations World Hunger Program for them to distribute.

Aw, this is the cutest thing ever. I can help hungry people and brush up on my vocabulary as well.

Also, Fu Su Lu, don't forget that there are starving people in the United States as well.

There are a lot of grains of rice in a meal gonna have to do this a bunch. Sounds like a cool idea non the less. I'll have to try it out when I get more free time.

I stopped at 1800, when I reached Vocab level 40. Which, for a non English speaker, isn't that bad, I think.

Oh, well... knowing other languages helps a lot, too!

I donated 3000 rice the first time I did it, and I go on in school when I'm bored to mess about.

I got bored at 1000, but it's good to see sites like this popping up.

edit: It's pretty amazing how someone's cleverness can turn other people's boredom into food for the needy.
