500,000,000 Firefox Downloads Earns Rice!

The Mozilla community (ie Firefox), celebrated yesterday the 500,000,000 downloads of Firefox with a very original way. Their aim was to play at Freerice.com (a page where you play for free and give away grains of rice to people that need food) and gather 500,000,000 grains of rice.
From what I see Freerice’s daily rice grain levels fluctuate between 100,000,000-150,000,000. I am curious to find whether the Firefox community managed to reach their goal 
(will update this article as soon as I find out)

Another great charity site is AIDtoCHILDREN.com. It donates money to children in need through World Vision.
AIDtoCHILDREN.com is a dual-purpose site for building an English vocabulary and raising money for under privileged children in the most impoverished places around the world.
Check it out at http://www.aidtochildren.com
