Freerice

Every time you guess correctly in this quiz-like game, you trigger a financial payment to the UN’s World Food Programme (WFP). The money is generated via small ads that will appear to the right of your screen if you get the answer right. This money is used for many types of assistance — not just rice — depending on the needs. The WFP have the ambitious target of ending world hunger, achieving food security and improving global nutrition by 2030. This game is a fun and easy way of helping them achieve that! With COVID-19, the WFP will see a steep rise in demand and increased pressure on their services, so now is as good a time as any to get involved and support their efforts. This game is a great boredom buster, you can even play it with your friends (see who can get the most grains of rice in a set amount of time)! You can pick the level of difficulty and the category, so why not brush up on your knowledge of world flags or learn a different language. Give it a go, enjoy yourself and make sure your adblocker is turned off while you play.
