Basically the way it works, you pick a subject and answer questions. For every question you answer correctly 10 grains of rice get donated through UN World Food Program. As for the subjects you can choose from art, geography, english, math, language, and science.
I have to admit that I enjoy doing the language. I work on my Spanish. It is fun to see what I remember from my two semesters of it in college.
Within a matter of minutes, I answered enough questions to donate 1,450 grains of rice today. It is a super easy way to help others.
If you have an extra five minute go check it out.
I've also started working on my goal to donate my hair to locks of love. It's been awhile since I've had a hair cut, so I guess I started on this one months ago.
I have to be honest. This is a goal I'm not sure I will meet. Having 10 inches of hair to donate means my hair has to get LONG!! I just don't know. We'll see how it goes.
