Give Where You Live with the American Red Cross x Metallica
JULY 29, 2025
We are excited to announce that Metallica and AWMH are once again teaming up with the American Red Cross for a new campaign, Give Where You Live.
Those who sign up to give blood or platelets by visiting RedCrossBlood.org/Metallica to make their appointment—and then come to give between July 29, 2025, and February 28, 2026, at any Red Cross blood drive across the U.S.—will receive the new, limited-edition Red Cross x Metallica t-shirt, while supplies last. These donors will also be entered to win a one-of-a-kind ESP Snakebyte guitar featuring the exclusive Red Cross x Metallica design created by Squindo and autographed by all four members of the band.
“The difference Metallica and their fans have made shows the commitment of the band and their community to patients in need. This partnership has resonated not only with our regular blood donors but those who have been moved to donate for the first time. The need for blood is ongoing, and we are thrilled to continue to offer a brand new, exclusive thank-you to Metallica fans who want to make a difference for those all across our country facing traumatic injuries or chronic illness and need blood to feel better or celebrate another day of life.”
Darren Irby, Executive Director of National Partnerships
American Red Cross
This new opportunity is a direct result of the generosity of the Metallica Family during our first #BleedingMe go-around. Throughout the U.S. run of M72 shows, fans donated more than 2,000 units of blood and platelets! Each blood donation can help save more than one life; the Metallica Family is giving back and saving lives!
