[FreePoverty.com](http://www.freepoverty.com) is another variation on the click-
to-give-for-free website, and specifically the quiz version of that site. It emulates
[FreeRice.com](http://www.freerice.com) which enables users to ‘donate’ cups of 
rice for each word’s meaning they can guess correctly.

[[FreePoverty.com is just as good. Instead it enables users to ‘donate’ cups of 
water to help end poverty. All you have to do is stick a pin in an online map to
indicate where a series of towns or cities are. Each correct answer can generate
up to 10 donated cups of water.

So far the site claims to have donated the equivalent of 14,496,386 cups of water.

 [⌊Posthub advert. You create the campaign. We'll handle the postal journey. Get started at post-hub.co.uk.⌉](https://fundraising.co.uk/ads/posthub-20261007-300x250/)

Of course, as with FreeRice.com and the Hunger Site and all the many similar sites
over the years, the donations are paid for by companies who pay to advertise on 
these sites.

The site has been created and financed by Chung-Guk Kim and Mobatar S.r.l, his mobile
advertising company in Rome.

I enjoyed this game and suggest you try it out.
