Play games for charity

Jan-4-2009 By annelions

I came across an interesting concept for a site yesterday called Charity Arcade. Seeing as how it’s only a month old, they haven’t yet made any donations. It’d be great, however, if the site does eventually take off. After all, you’ll be donating by doing something you’d be doing already; playing games online.

There are other similar-ish concepts out there, like The Hunger Site and a closer match at FreeRice, but this is the first site I’ve seen with actual games to play.

The Hunger site has given away more than 500 million cups of food and FreeRice has given away approximately 1.1 million kilograms of rice.

Can Charity Arcade beat or top those totals? We’ll see.
