so all you have to do is go to this site http://www.freerice.com/index.php and answer vocabulary questions. for each question you get right the site will donate twenty grains of rice through the UN to help end world hunger

Its so sad that the US only donates 17 cents out of $100, to world hunger... One of the richest nations and we cannot afford  to donate 70 fucking cents that is ridiculous.

How many people will 1 pound of rice give a meal to? I mean, I know i couldn't eat a pound of rice in a sitting, maybe a half pound or so, tops. and its still better than not giving food to the hungry, ya know?

So basically all the people visiting the site draw sponsors, who pay for ad space, which generates the sites revenue which is basically what buys rice?

2100 no problem, I'm going to start again tomorrow and do 10K, its just too late.
