Freerice, an innovative trivia game created by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), allows you to help build a hunger-free future by simply playing a game on your phone or computer. And now, through a powerful collaboration with the World Food Forum (WFF), you have an opportunity to make an even greater impact.

Through an engaging trivia game, Freerice allows you to make a real-world impact while learning about important issues. For each question you answer correctly, you earn 10 grains of rice to fill a virtual bowl. Private sponsors match the rice grain donations generated within Freerice, triggering a financial payment to WFP. This money goes into the pot of "greatest needs" to support the organization's ongoing emergencies. 100% of all funds generated via Freerice go to the World Food Programme. Freerice does not earn or keep any money it raises. The more rice you earn, the more funds are raised to support reducing hunger in regions affected by conflict, climate disasters and rising food prices.

Since its inception in 2008, Freerice has grown into a global community of over 8 million players per year, raising more than 224 billion grains of rice, the equivalent of $1.5 million, for life-saving programmes around the world.

Freerice is not just a tool for doing good; it’s also a tool for learning. With over 60 categories available, there is something for everyone. By engaging with initiatives like Freerice, we move a step closer to achieving the several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), contribute to several SDGs, including Zero Hunger and Quality Education.

The WFF and Freerice have launched a campaign, "50 Days to Feed the Future," leading up to the flagship event in October, to help youth actively contribute to ending hunger and promoting global food security. Our goal is to raise 100 million grains of rice in 50 days to support food programmes that promote better nutrition, a healthier environment and a brighter future for all.
