Free Poverty – Knowing Helps

I posted here before about a FreeRice.com
Today, while searching for a water filter system, I came across FreePoverty.com
Just like FreeRice.com, you can test your knowledge and help others at the same time.

Here is what they have to say about the history of poverty:
“Every day, at least 30,000 people around the world die from poverty; most of whom are under five years of age. They die because they are undernourished, and do not have enough food or water to survive. More than 800 million people go hungry every day. This is 13% of the world population. How can you help? By playing this game on FreePoverty.com, each answer you get correct, 10 cups of water will be donated. Somewhere in the world, someone will receive it. And it will make a difference to their day.”

For less than 3 minutes, I donated 48 cups of water and reviewed my geography at the same time! What a win-win situation. Why don’t you give it a try? Be the change you want the world to be.
