[1] Is this not advertiseing?
[2] 500 grains could fit in your hand. There are more useful ways to make a difference.
If you're serious about doing something then get involved directly.

@loloynage it's ads. Every time you anwer a question the ad changes and they earn a little.
@aether
1 if you are not selfish I think you can stand some advertising if it's for a good purpose.
2 yes, but this is FREE!

the advertisments pay for the rice (Google etc.) because rice is very very cheap.

I'm on it, it's legit. I've donated about 5000 grains of rice and have a group set up. Go on my page if you want to join the group. The advertisements at the bottom of the website give money for rice

Now, I don't want to be a party crasher, but the OP doesn't really elicit converstaion, ssso unless you guys come up with a better idea for an OP, like what sites do you know of, like freerice.com, give out food for free, than this thread is gonna get locked.

Also, you may want to check out the sister site to freerice, poverty.com. It is really interesting.

I go to that site about everyday and donate about 1,000 in the morning and 1,000 at night. It's a nice thing to do.
I mean just answering simple questions and you're feeding starving people. How is that hard? It's not.
