Free Rice

Free Rice is an online game that aims to end world hunger while improving people’s vocabulary. It’s an online word game you can play, and for each one you answer you correctly, you are donating 10 grains of rice for free. The rice is paid for by advertisers seen on the bottom of the game page. Pretty nice.

Wow. This site has it all. It uses the internet to educate in both literacy and social issues, while allowing people to contribute to a great cause for no money. This is such a great model for fund raising - everyone gets something and anyone who can access the medium (the internet in this case) has an equal (and ever increasing) opportunity to do something good for other people.
