Charity News Online
Barbra Streisand has made a gift of $1 million to a charity led by the former U.S. president Bill Clinton, making his Climate Change Initiative the first recipient to benefit from the millions she has pledged to charitable causes generated by her upcoming national concert tour.
The gift makes Streisand the leading contributor to Clinton's effort to bring together a consortium of major cities around the world to drive down greenhouse gas emissions, Reuters reports.
Streisand recently announced that she would undertake a concert tour in October and November to help raise money for organizations dealing with environmental, women's health and educational issues. A spokesman for Streisand said she has been funding efforts to deal with global climate change since the late 1980s.
