Help End World hunger with Free Rice

[yomamayomamaoymama]

actually these food donations harm more than they help, because this drives 3rd world farmers out of buisness and support the economic misery of the 3rd world. "give a man a fish and he can eat for a day, learn a man how to fish and he can eat for a lifetime"

[rime360]

Well maybe not because it's in only certain parts of the world and only rice

[scoobyj2002]

i donated about 12000 grains of rice in a little over an hour

[SmartCookie513]

This website is seriously amazing.

[Spartan76092]

Every click is 20 grains now.

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

cool

[walkiri]

!!!!FACTS!!!

80 grains of rice weights about 1g

1 bag of rice = 100g

I made a 600 grains of rice per 5 min

that gives 7200/h = 90g :(

Now count how much does that amount of rice cost in your country and how much are You paied per hour for worst paied job you could do and compare that to how much are "YOU" pai ed for clicking on that page...

MY PROPOSAL:

DONATE the equivalence of 1kg of rice to account of any charity organisation and You will do MUCH MORE for them!!!!!

-peace-

[walkiri]

i regret :(

why? visit 'free rice club'

[lolXDrofl]

personally, i make atleast 1000 grains every 3 minutes or so, and even though this seems like a small amount, when thousands of people get together and do it at once, think about how much it adds up, as said in the video millions of people have been helped and it costs you nothing, only your time so there is little excuse as why one would not participate

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

yep, i agree

[leftknut]

The problem with your suggestion is that people are ridiculously selfish, if you don't believe me look at the resistance to every welfare program ever. So yes if you are the type of person that wants to help other people for that sake donate money, but what freerice does is tap onto people's desire for self-improvement and use it to help others, a win-win.

[milh467]

The idea is for a lot of schools / organizations to do this so that it is it a lot of times at once to make up for it. And okay, lets say you donate. The expense of you donating the rice would be far more immense.

[SuperMatch2007]

They're still using the old school projectors!

[chipinsalsa]

Everyone still uses them.

[kelely]

yup im in 8th grade they suck

[sasuke64palms]

:) I like this idea lol my teacher told us about it and of course no one really paid much attention, but last Saturday I had nothing to do so I googled free rice and I got this warm fuzzy feeling inside me :)

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

well thx,, and keep your teacher informed...

[GrapeOwns]

My school does it all the time.

We have a competition between the grades. Eight grades winning by a few thousand. But, of course, we have to print out the proof of our rice. :)

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

thats awesome,, i wish alot more schools would get involved

[icearcher85]

i use an auto clicker and and click like the top answer and get it right like 1/5 times then i click it like every 2 seconds and yay im helping poor poeople while im away from the computer!

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

lol..thats cool

[icearcher85]

yup =)

[leftknut]

free rice suggests you not do that, because then their advertisers aren't getting the time they paid for, but hell what they don't know won't hurt them and will help the hungry

[sneakypreacher]

I think they should have a "dumb" version of FreeRice as well so that stupid people can help fight world hunger too...lol.

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

hahahahah,, well it does start off at level 1, i think,,,even the sneaky one ought to be able to do that one,,, heheheh

[DMXell]

The website adapts to your intelligence. The game becomes harder the more questions you ask correctly and easier the more you answer incorrectly. After a few dozen questions it should even out at a vocab level you can do reasonably well in.

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

I think sneaky was being sneaky, DMX....I am almost sure of it

[icearcher85]

i second that!

[raulitech]

Thats amazing and brilliant, nobody loses.

[Sm00thOp3r8or]

thats right..help out and thx....

[jernov]
