Metallica donating $350K to COVID-19 relief

Credit: Herring & HerringMetallica has announced a $350,000 donation in support of COVID-19 relief through the band’s All Within My Hands charity foundation.

The donation will benefit four organizations: Feeding America, Direct Relief, Crew Nation and The USBG National Charity Foundation.

Feeding America supports local food banks, Direct Relief provides personal protective equipment to healthcare workers, Crew Nation benefits touring and venue crew members, and USBG benefits the hospitality industry.

Metallica also recently launched their “Metallica Mondays” series, during which the metal legends are sharing archival footage of full past live concerts. By watching these videos, you’ll also have an opportunity to donate to the Metallica-supported charities.

“We know this is the hardest of times for many of you, but if you would like to support any of these organizations, please feel free reach out directly to our incredibly dedicated partners as the needs are very wide-ranging,” Metallica says. “Every dollar helps.”
