Virtual Service Join us for virtual service events such as Free Rice and Smithsonian Transcriptions. Doing free rice is a simple way to do service on a global scale. Every trivia question that you answer right means that 10 grains of rice go to the UN World Food Program. Smithsonian Transcriptions allow you to do service and experience history simultaneously. Go through Smithsonian historical documents and biodiversity data and transcribe from print to type to make this information more accessible to everyone.
