Conor McGregor Donates $1 Million to First Responders
The name of Conor McGregor is circulating around the MMA water cooler once again. However, fans can celebrate in unison knowing that this time, McGregor’s name isn’t attached to controversy or breaking the law. In fact, Conor is celebrating a milestone moment in his business career. His whiskey company, Proper 12, has recently turned a year old. To honor the achievement, Conor will begin donating the first million dollars raised to first responder organizations.
It’s already been a full year since the launch of Proper 12 whiskey. While Conor’s presence has been absent physically inside of the cage, his impact felt around the world continues to accumulate wealth. From the whiskey to his lifestyle clothing brand, August McGregor, Conor is blazing his own trail.
McGregor took to Instagram to celebrate his accomplishments with Proper No. 12. He made sure to thank everyone involved from the customers, to his staff, and everyone in between. Additionally, he expressed the importance of giving back and how the company’s philosophies are rooted in charitable work.
