My Kindness Act  I first got my kindness act idea from my mom  She told me about FreeRice.com  This is a website that feeds the hungry along with helping you learn  What you do is answer trivia questions from the website and each one you get right awards food the hungry in countries around the world such as Uganda, Haiti, and Indonesia

My Act Continued…  When I first logged onto this website about two weeks ago I was so amazed to see how much of an effect starvation has in our world  Every 6 seconds a child dies of hunger  Knowing that we can make a difference in our world just gives everyone hope  This is why I found my act important

FreeRice.com  The motto of this website is ‘Feed to Learn. Learn to Feed’  I found this website so beneficial to everyone taking part in it because at the same time you are learning, you’re helping kids in need  How it works is it gives you a series of questions from all different subjects including math, grammar, geography, and even Spanish  Every time you answer a question right it automatically donates ten grains of rice to such children in need  This may not seem a lot but if you play for only about 10 minutes you could feed a person for 2 days

My Feelings  When I first reached my goal of donating 5,000 grains of rice I felt content, accomplished, but at the same time sad  Knowing that I helped kids survive gave me a feeling of joy and happiness  Although, it also gave me a feeling of sorrow because I knew so many people are dying from hunger

My One Miracle  If I had the power, money, or time to create one miracle I would be to end world hunger  Over 30,000 kids die from hunger everyday  Chronically, an average of 1 billion people in the world today are hungry  This is why I think my miracle would change the world
