Will Connolly, whose act gained him the nickname 'Egg Boy' on social media, said the money was raised through crowdfunding to cover his legal fees after he egged Senator Anning at a March 16 rally in Melbourne.

Footage of the incident showed Mr Connolly watching Mr Anning from the sidelines before he started filming with his mobile phone, and then smashed the egg on the back of the senator's head.

Mr Connolly had promised to donate the money after he was represented pro-bono and said he had overcome "a huge amount of red tape" to gift $99,922.36 to the Christchurch Foundation and Victim Support.

"I decided to donate all monies to help provide some relief to the victims of the massacre, it wasn't mine to keep," he wrote on Instagram.

"To the victims of this tragedy, I wholeheartedly hope that this can bring some relief to you.

"Keep spreading the love."

A spokesman for Victim Support confirmed to the ABC that a portion of Mr Connolly's donation had been transferred to the charity from GoFundMe.

Kevin Tso, chief executive of Victim Support, said Mr Connolly's donation would be added to the more than $11 million raised since March 15, which will be distributed as a lump sump to victims in June.

"Funds raised have been invaluable in helping those affected to rebuild their lives. The compassion and empathy shown has been overwhelming," Mr Tso said.

Senator Anning was internationally criticised after he blamed the March 15 attacks on two mosques in Christchurch, in which 51 people were killed by an Australian gunman, on "Muslim migration".

He was censured by the Senate for his statement and refused to apologise.

Mr Connolly said he egged Senator Anning because of this statement but conceded it was "not the right thing to do".

The Melbourne teen was given an official caution by police, while officers determined Mr Anning had acted in self-defence when he punched Mr Connolly after the egging.

A 20-year-old Melbourne man was charged with kicking Mr Connolly while he was being restrained by Senator Anning's supporters.
