POST YOUR TOTALS AND ADD TO OUR GRAND TOTAL!
We have donated over 477,000 grains of rice so far!
That's TWENTY-FOUR ( 24 ) people fed for one day!
The World Food Programme has a sister support site that most of you probably know about.
FreeRice is helping to support the victims of the Haitian earthquake by donating rice. Though the website and its donations are not strictly Haitian, I'm positive that much of the rice donated in the coming days will be going toward Haiti and the surrounding areas.
And you can help by just playing the game. For every vocabulary word you answer correctly, 10 grains of rice are donated toward the cause. There are also other subjects, such as languages, basic algebra and multiplication, English grammar, and geography. Just click the 'Change Subject' link to choose a new subject!
The best part is, the game is completely free for you to play, and you can give as much or as little as you like. Every little bit helps, especially in a time like this.
The Hunger Site is another way you can help. By clicking one little button every day, money and resources will go to help Haitian victims. One click -- how easy does it get? They have donated over $125,000 US to the cause, just from people clicking their links!
FreePoverty is a website similar to FreeRice, where you can play a geography game to donate cups of water. The closer you are to the target, the more cups you can donate!
So just because you can't give money doesn't mean you can't help!
Let's band together, Gaia, and make a difference~
It takes roughly 19,200 grains of rice to feed one person for one day.
