Metallica have revealed that their charity, All Within My Hands Foundation, has teamed up with a well-known chef and donated $500,000 to help feed Ukrainian refugees.
Speaking about the donation, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich said, "The work that Chef José Andrés and the dedicated World Central Kitchen cooks do on the frontlines in a humanitarian crisis is nothing short of incredible.
Our friend @Andrew_Cremeans has donated a new, incredible design for the @AWMHFoundation's #MonthsOfGiving2022 t-shirt! Proceeds from the sale of this shirt go to @WCKitchen’s #ChefsForUkraine campaign.

"We are inspired, humbled, and beyond proud to support their teams currently in six European countries serving the millions of Ukrainians who have been forced to leave their homes."
Andrés founded the World Central Kitchen to provide meals in an effort to create money for humanitarian, climate, and community crises.
Metallica have said they hope to donate $1million over the next two months and are selling a new t-shirt designed by artist Andrew Cremeans.
Goth band The Cure have also announced details of a new charity band T-shirt to raise funds for Ukraine amid Russia's invasion.
The Blue-and-yellow shirts bear the colours of the Ukrainian flag and the band have promised that the net proceeds from sales will go to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).
