All Within My Hands – the philanthropic arm of thrash metal band Metallica – has announced the donation of $75,000 to benefit various food banks in Texas after the state experienced historically brutal weather conditions resulting from a winter storm last month.

A statement shared to the All Within My Hands website this week states the gracious allotment of money will go directly to Feeding America, who will help distribute the funds to food banks across the state.

The statement reads,

The winter storm that struck Texas last month was beyond anything the state’s residents could imagine preparing for. As temperatures dropped well below freezing and widespread power outages swept the area, families suffered. Grocery chains did the best they could to support their communities, but their supply was hit hard. While temperatures have risen and electricity has been restored in many areas, residents are still very much in the throws of a struggle.

Texans running low on food are finding empty grocery store shelves. Food pantries are running out of supplies. And the freeze has wiped out substantial portions of the state’s citrus and vegetable crops.

As one of the most commercially successful American rock bands over the past four decades, Metallia’s philanthropic efforts to give back through All Within My Hands have not gone unnoticed. Metallica hosts an annual “Day of Service” country-wide volunteering initiative, which has reportedly raised over $7 million through the band and donations in addition to $2 million in grant funding over the past few years since beginning in 2017.
