Is it really possible if you could feed a hungry person right in the comfort of your own home while learning and having fun? Many of you may think that's not possible; however, I'm here to tell you that it is. FreeRice is an online website, entirely non-profited, that is maintained by and fully supports the United Nations World Food Programme.

FreeRice launched on the web in October of 2007 and has fed millions of people, thanks to the thousands of players.
