I think our challenge took effect. They reduced the amount of rice per click down to 10 grains. We are too expensive me thinks. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

This just in from the kitties.... You have now donated 1000 grains of rice. And, in answer to the question............... Why has FreeRice had to decrease the number of grains of rice from 20 to 10? As a result of the global economic crisis and its effect on internet advertising, we have reluctantly decreased the number of grains of rice donated for each correct answer from 20 to 10. When FreeRice started in October 2007, we originally gave 10 grains for each correct answer. We were then fortunate enough to be able to increase this to 20 grains for 2008. When the economic climate improves, we hope to be able to increase from 10 to 20 once again! Until then, please know that we appreciate more than ever your generous efforts in playing FreeRice.
