Free Rice is a United Nations intervention. It is also a fun approach to getting sponsors to offer rice. For each correct answer to a vocabulary question, you will get 10 grains of rice through the UN Food Program – and you will learn new words of value. The World Food Program’s slogan is ‘Fighting hunger Worldwide’. I raised 320 grains of rice from my blemished linguistic effort, which barely fills a cup. Although insignificant, I believe that collectively, we as a Community of Practice can do even more. I hope to do much more – and in a different way.

The website states that: WFP relies entirely on voluntary contributions to finance its humanitarian and development projects. Donations are made in three ways:
· Cash
· Food such as flour, beans, oil, salt and sugar
· Items necessary to grow, store and cook food - kitchen utensils, agricultural tools, warehouses
Do you feel charitable? Do you see where your talents and expertise can lead you in helping the unfortunate? Have you heard of a noble cause to support? Would you be open to make time to enlist a legion of kind donors to raise funds for a worthy cause? There are many ways to be charitable. Money is one way. So is kindness. So is gratis (gifts). Many values support charity: consideration, kindness, caring, recognition, generosity of spirit, synergy, legacy, tenacity, proactive, abundance, exchange, passion, resourcefulness, etc.
I am, currently, thinking up ways to raise active awareness and engage the actions of others in some global causes. These include:
1. Care for our marine environment
2. Feed the hungry
3. Enhancing knowledge and spreading open education
This is a call for action. Start a tribe to change the world: one follower at a time. Spread the word.
