First Lady Nancy Reagan watches as school children put money in a panda shaped bank in front of the panda cages at the National Zoo in Washington on Monday, March 26, 1984. Mrs. Reagan asked American school children to donate "pennies for pandas," launching a nationwide campaign to save China's remaining wild pandas from starvation. The Chinese government has also launched a campaign that pledged $1.3 million to help rescue the pandas from areas where their food supply is dying and transport them to rescue centers. One of the National Zoo's pandas, Hsing-Hsing, is visible behind Mrs. Reagan. (AP Photo/Lana Harris)
