Check out Free Rice. The site is a English vocab game that donates 10 grains of rice through the UN to developing countries for every answer you get correct. The funds are provided by the companies advertising on the site. Take a look at the current tally.
The genius is the spin–turning charity work/giving into a game so users are amused, instantly rewarded for their effort and in turn food is being sent to people in need, brilliant!
So what are you waiting for? I know you got 5 minutes to spare… Go play (I mean donate).

Very cool.
I found out about Free Rice through a GEO class a few weeks back. Been testing the vocab pretty regularly since.
