Metallica have gifted $100,000 (€90,000) to the wildfire relief efforts in Northern and Southern California.
The metallers made the donation via their All Within My Hands Foundation. The band also urged fans to donate their own resources too.
Making the announcement on Twitter, the band said the money would be shared equally between the Wildfire Relief Fund and the Sonoma County Resilience Fund.
“Sadly, for the third year in a row, communities we have called home throughout the state of California are again experiencing the tragedy left in the wake of wildfires,” they wrote.
Whether you are able to contribute money, non-perishable food, clothing and other supplies, or your time by volunteering or providing temporary housing, every bit helps.
