http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-20863784Cherie Blair has been made a CBE in the New Year Honours for her services to women's issues and charity.The wife of former prime minister Tony Blair has worked to raise both funds and awareness for a wide range of charities at home and overseas.
She does a lot of work for charity and as we all know, charity begins at home. Who can forget the generous charity tour she undertook down under? She was paid £102,000 for her five-city tour of Australia and New Zealand, with one cancer research charity receiving as much as £6,690, or 8%, of the total funds raised at an £82-a-head dinner which raised £81,270.
