Tis the Season for Giving

Posted on December 1, 2007 by Lady Rose

Tis the season for giving, and paying it forward - but also a time when money is tight and so is time. One cause I truly support is to stop hunger and below are some quick, free ways you can help too.

FREE RICE - Here’s a fun online game that not only builds your vocabulary, but also helps feed the world’s hungry. For every correct answer, 10 grains of rice are donated through the United Nations. “About 25,000 people die each day from hunger or hunger-related causes, most of them children. To a mother or father watching a loved child die in their arms from hunger, the rice you donate is more precious than anything in the world.”

Feel free to promote this game on your blog, they have lots of various size banner graphics on their website. For more information on how the free rice program works see FAQ.

If you don’t want to play a game, you can help feed the world’s hungry with a simple click on the banner below (a simple click gives 1.1 cups of food to the hungry). There are also lots of wonderful shops on their site that donate their proceeds to feeding people around the globe, so take a few minutes to perhaps find a great xmas gift for someone special.

STOP HUNGER - for a list of all the charities and causes I support.

    Love your site and feel the fun you two share.
    Hard times now, with a great shadow looming.
    We who know the Goddess need to keep remembering the Truth, dispelling the lies, and celebrating the Beauty of Life and The Mother.
    Bright Blessings and Happy Yule to you both.

    Thank you for posting the word game. Its a great way to decompress for a few minutes, challenge your brain as well as to do a good deed.

    I played for a bit and tallyed up 1500 grains of rice .. which is approximately a cup and 1/2 of rice.

    Its a great way to challenge both adults and teenagers - especially those studying for their SATs.
