Learn, Play and Give Back with Freerice!

Freerice is an educational trivia game that helps you get smarter while making a difference for people around the world. Every question you answer correctly in the game triggers a financial payment to the World Food Programme (WFP) to support its work saving and changing lives around the world.

In the game, these payments are represented by grains of rice so by playing Freerice, you are generating the money that pays for this rice. This money goes into the pot of "greatest needs" to support WFP's ongoing emergencies. 100% of all funds generated on Freerice go to the World Food Programme. Freerice does not earn or keep any money it raises.

Since 2010, Freerice has raised more than 210 billion grains of rice for people in need. In cash equivalent, that is US $1.41 million! Join our community of 500,000 players from around the world and start making a difference today.

BEAN BEAN BEAN

You play a variety of online quizzes to collect delicious beans.

I donate to charities based on the amount of beans collected.

Together we'll help out the less fortunate in our communities.

Lots of people ask: do you actually donate beans? I used to think that was the best way to do things, but it makes much more sense to simply convert the amount of digital beans collected by players into a dollar amount. This dollar amount is then donated to charity.

Since charities can purchase food at wholesale prices, this is a much more efficient way of giving than by actually bringing in beans to a food bank. For example, Feeding America can fund 10 full meals for only $1!

However, food aid for developing countries often hurts much more than it helps by decimating local farming economies. That's why I never donate to international food aid charities, instead focusing on US-based food banks, natural disaster relief efforts, and other assorted charities.

Freekibble

Thank You For Helping Us Feed And Care For Shelter Pets!

Freekibble and Freekibble Kat were launched in 2008, as the vision of then 11-year-old Mimi Ausland. Mimi wanted to feed the homeless pets at her local shelter. “There are tens of thousands of dogs and cats in animal shelters across the country, all needing to be fed a good meal.” With this in mind, Freekibble was created. Since then, we’ve donated the value of over 5,342,827,148 pieces of kibble to homeless dogs and cats in shelters and food banks across the country!

LITTER

In 2014, we added Free Kat Litter. Shelters go through millions of pounds of cat litter every year. By donating litter to shelters, they can spend the money saved on caring for cats… and getting them adopted!

Animal shelters go through millions of pounds of cat litter. By donating litter to shelters, they can spend the money saved on getting more cats adopted. Freekibble has donated the value of 11,078,705 scoops!

All of us at Freekibble are committed to Mimi’s original dream that “Every dog and cat deserves a decent dinner”. And, we’re dedicated to the primary mission of feeding and caring for as many shelter pets as we possibly can.

IMPACT
