Rice = Bread

Check out this cool website. It combines two of my passions: helping the impoverished and words. Basically, you match vocab words to their definition and the site donates rice to the UN food bank. Granted, I do not have respect for the UN and think that they often do more harm than good with regards to conflict resolution and foreign policy. However, as the largest supranational in the world, they do have considerable resources, and I have heard good things about some of their relief work. UNICEF in particular seems to be relatively effective.
