We are proud to highlight some of the Mitzvah Projects that our 2009-2010 B'nai Mitzvah class are involved in.

Freerice.com is an organization that fights world hunger while educating people of all ages. This activity is completely free; your only donation is your time. The website asks multiple choice questions on subjects such as:

· Language Arts (grammar and vocabulary)

· Math (pre-algebra and times tables)

· Foreign Languages (French, German, Italian, and Spanish)

· Art (famous paintings) 

· Chemistry (chemical symbols)

· Geography (locating countries on a map and world capitals)

For every question answered correctly on FreeRice.com, ten grains of rice are donated to the United Nations World Food Program. Over 80 billion grains of rice have been donated through FreeRice, and less of the world has gone hungry. Participating in FreeRice.com is a double mitzvah: it educates the users, and feeds the hungry. I encourage you to use FreeRice.com. Please email me at rainarice@gmail.com if you use this website, so that I can keep track of my Mitzvah Project. In the email, please provide your name, and approximately how many grains of rice you have earned.
