Free Rice, and Vocabulary

Improve your vocabulary, and help end world hunger.


Click here to improve your vocabulary and donate rice to starving nations! From the Free Rice about page: FreeRice is a sister site of the world poverty site, Poverty.com. FreeRice has two goals: 1. Provide English vocabulary to everyone for free. 2. Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free. This is made possible by the sponsors who advertise on this site.

Wings of Hope

Come and celebrate in San Francisco by raising money for The Hope Flight Foundation.

As some of you know, my daughter Evie was born with a heart defect. We spent the first few weeks of her life in the hospital at UCSF where the specialists there performed open heart surgery on her when she was less than two weeks old. The excellent neonatal cardio team at UCSF saved her life, but if she hadn't been in an area where we had specialists readily available it might have been a different story. This is a fund-raising event for a charity that helps families less fortunate than mine. If you live in the San Francisco area, come down and support this organization, it ought to be a great time! -Colby Palmer
The Hope Flight Foundation is a an organization that flies terminally ill children and their families to hospitals and treatment centers around the country so they are able to get the best care, even if it is far from home. The organization also does "make a wish" flights so sick children are able to go to Disneyland, etc... This is a wonderful cause!
