I just read the thread about saving the giant pandas. Just wanted to add that the kids could raise money doing chores at home to donate to WWF. They can adopt a "symbolic" panda in which WWF will send the adoption paper, a stuffed replica, and a fact sheet on the panda. This is so motivating for the kids, and they become very interested in global conservation when you "put faces to problems". My kids do this every year with different animals and I see such a change in their priorities and what a great way to teach about other countries!
