Hawking candy bars and magazines for your basketball team is so old school. Meet Fundraising 2.0: Kids can get their mitts on some much-needed green, while learning to be more environmentally and socially conscious, whether it's by collecting used printer cartridges for recycling, or touting fair-trade stationery, natural body-care products, or green-biz coupon books.
