The Freerice donation activity is organized by the UN’s World Food Programme (WFP). As you play Freerice and answer questions right, advertisements appear on your screen which trigger a financial payment to the WFP to support its work saving and changing lives around the world. We were part of a group led by IB Year 2 students. We played this game for around 2 weeks and together, we got the highest score compared to other groups. This game was rather simple and did not pose any challenges for me or my team. Through this project, I understood the importance of food and how we shouldnt waste food as there are many people who don't have enough food at all. My teammates and I encouraged each other to do our best and win as many points as possible so as to raise as much rice grains as possible.
I have learnt the importance of food wastage, and now, I donate $10 worth of food to the Singapore Foodbank every month, with an extra $20 during my family’s birthday months.
