A great link from GD.
FreeRice.com is a website that donates rice to hungry people for every vocabulary word a user identifies correctly.

http://www.freerice.com/index.php

For those who want to do something concrete for the victims of famine, but don't have enough cash or time on hand right now to make large monetary or volunteer commitments.

I was on that site for an hour yesterday--'s fun.
