The diva will help fund Senators HILLARY CLINTON, BARACK OBAMA and JOHN EDWARDS' efforts to replace GEORGE W BUSH as US President.
In a statement posted on her website, Streisand writes, "I'm very excited about the strength of the Democratic field for the 2008 presidential election, and I'm looking forward to a lively and healthy primary debate that discusses the key issues facing this country.
"Because I want to see the front-runners have the financial backing they need to be competitive during this process, I've decided to make the maximum allowable primary donation to Hillary Clinton, John Edwards and Barack Obama."
The maximum amount Streisand can contribute to each candidate is $2,300 (GBP1,200) for the primary.
