In my interest to make a difference, no matter how small, I came across this great initiative today, thanks to 3F's. FreeRice is a non-profit website run by the United Nations World Food Programme that provides an almost effortless means for people to donate minimal time in exchange for free rice to the needy. You play simple multiple choice games and for each correct answer, FreeRice will donate 10 rice grains on your behalf.
Getting Started:

3. Before you start playing, you will need to select a group as follows
Click on "Select a group"
Click on "Find groups"
Join the Muslims United group as follows: Type "Muslims United" in the search box (top right corner)
Muslims United will appear in the list box (as shown above), click on it. On the next screen, select PLAY.Remember, each type you login, you will need to scroll down to "Muslim United" and click PLAY so that you can contribute under this group.
Select a category and start playing. It's fun, easy and non invasive. Imagine while you play, you're donating rice (food) to someone who did not have it 3 seconds ago. Just 5 minutes a day secures a meal for one of the 925 million hungry people worldwide.
