Metallica Donates To Hawaiian Relief – You Can Too
Metallica’s All Within My Hands foundation has donated $125,000 to flood relief projects in Hawaii through three local organizations: the Hawaiian Council, the Lāhui Foundation and Hui O He’e Nalu.
“Hawaii is facing the worst flooding it’s seen in more than two decades, leaving the islands suffering an estimated $1-billion in damage statewide,” writes the band. “The subtropical weather systems siphoned moisture from the tropics, fueling slow-moving thunderstorms with torrential, destructive rains. So far, hundreds of homes in O’ahu have sustained damage, in addition to millions of dollars in damage to farms across the island.”

As many as 115,000 O’ahu residents faced power outages in the storm’s aftermath. And while the heaviest rains have passed, flash floods remain possible in the coming days.
All Within My Hands has granted $50K to the Hawaiian Council (formerly Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement), $50K to the Lāhui Foundation, and $25K to Hui O He’e Nalu.
Since its founding in 2017, Metallica’s All Within My Hands Foundation has raised more than $20 million to give back to communities that have supported the band. The foundation has provided grants for workforce education, to fight hunger globally and to support to critical local services worldwide.
100% of donations go directly to local organizations that the foundation supports.
