Our foundation, All Within My Hands, is continuing its commitment to giving back to communities that have long supported Metallica. A portion of ticket sales from our show in Blacksburg has been donated to non-profits fulfilling vital needs. Receiving a combined $65,000 through AWMH with support from longtime Foundation partner Carhartt are Feeding Southwest Virginia and New River Family Shelter.
Feeding Southwest Virginia provides millions of pounds of nourishing food to our neighbors in need with its network of over 400 feeding programs and the support of generous donors and volunteers. Special thanks to our Metallica Family volunteers who donated their time for a shift at Feeding Southwest Virginia, during which they packed 4,700 lbs. of boxes, including food and other items, and provided 3,700 meals!
New River Family Shelter increases accessibility to safe and private housing, creating a secure and nurturing environment for children by partnering with its community, including volunteers, local government, and churches, to remove the stigma of homelessness and ultimately end long-term family homelessness. |
