FreeRice Feeds• Every year, 15 Million

children die from starvation,

while another billion people

having less than $1 a day to

buy food. Almost 50% of the

human population live on

less than $2 a day.

FreeRice Feeds• People are spending their

time playing games instead

of helping the poor,

so Freerice created a quiz

game.

FreeRice Feeds• Each time you answered a

question correctly, FreeRice

will buy 10 grains of rice,

which are paid for by the

sponsors of the site.

FreeRice Feeds• Now here’s a win-win, the

user improves his/her

education from answering

these questions, hungry

people get fed, and sponsors

get their promotional bang

for the buck.

FreeRice Feeds

• The site was later

donated to the United

Nations World Food

Programme.

FreeRice Feeds• To date, FreeRice has

donated 6100 metric

TONS of rice, consisting

of 93 billion grains of

rice and enough to feed

10 million people.
