All Within My hands, a charitable foundation run by Metallica, will donate $350,000 from four grants to organizations assisting with the relief of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.

The band explained: “In the wake of the spread of the coronavirus, the most vulnerable people in our communities need help now more than ever.”

The four grants will go to Feeding America, Direct Relief, Crew Nation and the USBG National Charity Foundation.

“As the COVID-19 pandemic has sent us retreating to our homes, Metallica has launched the #MetallicaMondays streaming series: Each Monday at 5PM PT, they’ll broadcast a full concert from the Metallica video archives directly to your couch via YouTube and Facebook Live. Generous donations to AWMH via the simultaneous fundraisers on each platform from fans enjoying the weekly series have already amounted to $15,000, and we’ll continue to raise funds during the weekly streams to support those impacted by COVID-19.”
