You know about freerice.com, the site that donates grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Program.
Now here comes freekibble.com, created by Mimi Ausland, a 12-year-old from Bend, Oregon, who wanted to help feed the dogs at her local animal shelter.
Every day that visitors play a trivia game ("What are the two varieties of the Collie breed?"), 20 pieces of free kibble are donated by the site's sponsors. (It doesn't matter if you get the right answer, which, by the way, is "rough and smooth.")
Close to 3 million pieces of kibble have been donated since April. Go, Mimi, go!

Excellent find D! But your link is giving a 404 error. The actual freekibble.com site works though. Every kibble counts and Mimi is one exceptional 12-year-old. Way to go!
Sue G just asked me (by e-mail) if I could post this link for everyone to see. I have not been able to view it myself yet as You Tube is not allowed on our computers at work.
Hope this works for Sue G:

OMG, Sue G thank you so much for sending this to me to post. I just now got to watch it (as we cannot access You Tube at work). I will keep this link forever.
What a beautiful, beautiful sight to see the love this lion had for these three men - even to the point of sharing his wife with them! Oh my goodness, I cannot stop crying. Such beauty overcomes so much ugliness in this world!
WOW. The video was fantastic. I cried also Kathleen. This is a beautiful thing.
