Remember to thank the heroes who are serving so selflessly right now – from doctors & nurses to grocery store staff and delivery people. I play an action hero in the movies – they are the real action heroes.

This is a simple way to protect our real action heroes on the frontlines in our hospitals, and I’m proud to be part of it. I donated 1 million dollars, and I hope that all of you who can will step up to support these heroes.”

This is an extremely noble act for Schwarzenegger to do. The reason for this GoFundMe fundraiser is to help provide protective equipment for these medical professionals during this outbreak. There is certainly a need for that right now, and he is doing a lot to help fill that hole.
