McGregor has made his opinions on Ireland's fight against coronavirus quite clear in recent days, criticising the Government's stance on airports and ports in a lengthy
Twitter thread on Friday night.
The former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion is putting his hand in his pocket to ensure that the frontline staff of his country have the equipment necessary to continue to do their tireless work in the safest way possible.
Next week, a significant amount of PPE will be delivered around Ireland thanks to McGregor's donation.
Responding to Saturday's successful delivery of PPE based on his donation, McGregor thanked public health nurse, national coordinator for nurse/midwife safety and founder of Heroes Aid, Mary Leahy, for her efforts.
The Notorious tweeted: "Thank you for all your assistance here Mary and to Heroes aid. I got a good boost this morning seeing our work come to fruition with multiple deliveries made. Hope you are well. Tough 3 weeks ahead, stay strong!"
