We're honored to reunite with Carhartt as the workwear brand's For the Love of Labor 2024 grant recipient to help women start careers in the skilled trades!

This past year has been an incredible one for All Within My Hands. We jumped at the opportunity to expand our giving and reaffirm our commitment to our charitable partners. And we got to enjoy some much-needed camaraderie courtesy of the M72 World Tour. While we reflect on 2023, we’re even more inspired to hit the ground running in 2024.

When we started thinking about this year’s Giving Tuesday, we thought, let’s keep it mellow… and then we laughed so hard we nearly hurt ourselves. Mellow, what’s that?!?! Needless to say, the ball started rolling, the team came together, and we built out a Giving Tuesday as we’ve never curated before.

For four years running, we've worked with the master craftsmen and our friends at Wolverine Boots & Apparel to create something unique to support our Metallica Scholars program. This year, we’ve leveled up with a stunning high-top leather sneaker!

Ford Field in Detroit hosted Metallica’s final M72 Weekend Takeover of 2023. It was bittersweet for the fans, but a bonus for three important organizations receiving a combined $100,000 grants: Gleaners Food Bank, Alternatives For Girls, and The Farmlink Project.

The World Central Kitchen Relief Team arrived in Mexico City shortly after the storm passed, airlifting thousands of meals and bottles of water into areas cut off by damage. WCK is also working to provide shops and restaurants with supplies as local merchants and community pillars continue to be overwhelmed by the rapid depletion of materials and goods.

Metallica’s St. Louis Takeover was capped with $100,000 in grants to three organizations doing vital work in the Gateway City and beyond: St. Louis Area Foodbank, The Women's Safe House, and The Farmlink Project. With the help of fans who attended the No Repeat Weekend at the Dome at America’s Center, three organizations received support from Metallica, All Within My Hands, and the fans.

This weekend, Metallica played PowerTrip alongside Guns N’ Roses, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Judas Priest, and Tool. But Metallica’s visit to the Empire Polo Club meant more than an incredible confluence of major names in hard rock.

All four new members have been involved with AWMH’s philanthropic efforts in an informal capacity thus far. We are truly honored to make our partnerships with each of them official!

World Central Kitchen’s Relief Team was on the ground within hours using any means possible, deploying helicopters and 4x4 vehicles to reach the hardest hit areas around the cities and in the steep, mountainous region. They are providing urgent support and sustenance, delivering meals and evacuating people needing medical care.

After a brief postponement, Metallica closed out their final weekend takeover of the summer last night in Phoenix! With the help of fans in attendance at State Farm Stadium, we committed $100,000 to three organizations doing incredible work in Phoenix and beyond: St. Mary’s Food Bank, The Sojourner Center, and The Farmlink Project.

We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with Enlightened to join forces in the fight against hunger! The health-conscious ice cream company has created an AWMH and Metallica-inspired, guitar-shaped ice cream bar, launching nationally on September 6, 2023.

Metallica & AWMH committed $100,000 in grants to four organizations in the LA area: our longtime partners at the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, the Second Harvest Food Bank serving Orange County, The Farmlink Project, and the Los Angeles House of Ruth.

Wrapping up two nights in Arlington on the M72 World Tour, Metallica is directing a portion of ticket sales back to nonprofit organizations in the greater Dallas community. Through AWMH, $100,000 in grants is going to Tarrant Area Food Bank, The Farmlink Project, and the Center for Transforming Lives.

If you’ve been following along with the M72 World Tour, you know that Metallica and AWMH select charitable partners to receive grants in every city the band visits. These vital, dedicated organizations rely on donations… and not just monetary ones. Many of them would not be able to run without the generosity of volunteers who donate their time.

We continue along the North American run of the M72 World Tour as Metallica just wrapped up two incredible nights at Stade Olympique. In partnership with Montréal-based promoter Evenko, the band and All Within My Hands are donating CA$107,000 of ticket revenue back to two local organizations, La Tablée des Chefs and Shelter Movers, doing meaningful work within the community.

Wildfires that started on Tuesday and moved quickly across the island of Maui have ravaged the historic town of Lahaina. Burning out neighborhoods and obliterating communities, at least 36 people have died, making this the deadliest wildfire in the US in five years. These devastating fires are the product of a confluence of weather conditions: dry vegetation, low humidity, and the vigorous winds of Hurricane Dora fanning the flames.

Metallica has officially kicked off the North American leg of the M72 World Tour at the Meadowlands Sports Complex. Now, the band and AWMH are continuing to give back to local communities, resuming our campaign in New Jersey and New York. A $100,000 donation will be distributed across four organizations vital to the area: City Harvest, Community Foodbank of New Jersey, The Farmlink Project, and Strengthen Our Sisters.

We are incredibly proud to announce the kickoff of year five of the Metallica Scholars Initiative (MSI) as eleven new schools join our roster of community colleges! These new schools will each receive $100,000 to enhance the student experience within career and technical education programs.

Following Metallica’s M72 World Tour stop in Gothenburg, Sweden, the band and AWMH reaffirmed their support for Göteborgs Stadsmission, an organization that strives to protect the equal value of all people as they fight for a more humane society. In partnership with Live Nation, we are donating SEK 928 000 to support their work.

Metallica brought a taste of the M72 World Tour to the Download Festival at Donington Park in England and gave folks more than a No Repeat Weekend. Following each night's performance, in partnership with Live Nation and Festival Republic, Metallica and All Within My Hands donated back to a local organization to the tune of £80,000. Friday’s recipient, Help The Homeless Leicester, and Sunday’s recipient, Living Without Abuse, were each granted £40,000 to support their charitable efforts.

As our fourth annual Month of Giving ends, we are thrilled to report that once again, with the help of Metallica fans worldwide, we continue to provide support for those in need. Thank you to everyone who joined us by making individual donations, shopping the Month of Giving Collection in The Metallica Store, participating in the auctions, entering the sweepstakes, and spreading the word!

The M72 World Tour keeps rolling, and this weekend, Metallica left €80,000 behind in Hamburg for two non-profit organizations. In partnership with Live Nation and AWMH, the band has donated a portion of ticket sales from each No Repeat Weekend show to CaFée mit Herz and DeinTopf.

Metallica’s latest donation on tour will support the incredible work being done by Les Restaurants du Coeur. In partnership with Live Nation and the fans in attendance at Stade De France on May 17 and 19, we are honored to make a grant totaling €80,000 to this exceptional organization.

As Metallica embarks on their M72 World Tour, we are proud to continue the legacy of leaving a gift behind for the communities that support the band. Each no-repeat weekend in the cities visited means double the chance to flex our philanthropic efforts, and who better to support on the first night in Amsterdam than a food bank?

Thanks to NetJets and our friends at Fandiem we’re giving one lucky winner and up to six guests the chance to experience a truly once-in-a-lifetime VIP Weekend Getaway to see Metallica on the M72 Tour.

By Sunday, another tornado was confirmed to have touched down near LaGrange, Georgia, about 65 miles southeast of Atlanta.

As the window closes on rescue efforts following the devastating earthquakes and aftershocks, the region is left with entire towns and cities reduced to piles of concrete.

When they reached out for our support, we jumped in with a donation of $50,000 towards their efforts.

Since establishing the Metallica Scholars Initiative in 2019, All Within My Hands (AWMH) has been working with the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) to provide direct support for career and technical education programs across the US.

To learn more about how we can contribute to the cause, we met with our partners at Feeding America to discuss how they are working to meet the needs of an increasing number of food insecure families as a result of the economic challenges brought on by the COVID crisis.

Last month we kicked off the All Within My Hands eBay auctions including autographed memorabilia, music, and Metallica experiences with all proceeds benefiting the foundation.

A little over a year ago we proudly launched All Within My Hands. Since then Metallica and the foundation have contributed to relief efforts in hurricane and earthquake-ravaged areas.

Today we had the pleasure of hosting representatives of The Mission Continues at Metallica HQ. It was a real honor to meet some of the team who assist veterans in adjusting to life at home and finding purpose through community impact.

Robert made it a family affair, spreading more holiday cheer during his visit with firefighters of the Los Angeles County Fire Department.

James visited both Vail Fire and Emergency Services and Vail Police Department to spread some holiday cheer with All Within My Hands Starbucks gift cards!

We were honored to be a part of the Band Together Bay Area benefit concert held at AT&T Park in San Francisco on November 9th. Thanks to you, $17 million was raised through ticket sales, sponsorships and online donations for low-income communities hit hardest by the North Bay fires.

To celebrate the holidays, we’re excited to announce that in the spirit of their “Give Good” campaign Starbucks and Spotify are donating $1 million to be divided between our All Within My Hands, Chance the Rapper’s Social Works and Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation.
