Here are three free, fun, helpful to others, good for your brain, and possibly addictive sites:
- www.freerice.com For each correct multiple choice answer, donate 10 grains of rice to the World Food Programme.
- www.freekibble.com When you play this trivia game, ten pieces of kibble are donated to animal shelters
- www.charitii.com A crossword puzzle that allows you to donate food, water, education, or help preserve the rain forest through four non-profit organizations.
I used these as examples of easy and no-cost ways to contribute to others in my new book, AARP’s The Single Woman’s Guide to Retirement.
Let me know what you think of them – they might just replace (or supplement) Words with Friends!

I had been playing Free Rice on my iPhone but the app went away … will look for all three as iPhone apps as well as online – and don’t forget to to the the Hunger Site daily ( support a half dozen or so good charities with just a click each day!)
Thanks
Thanks for the additional site!

I’ve done the freerice in the past, & now only do the freekibble.
