Metallica’s string of giving back is continuing. The band just announced its All Within My Hands Foundation will donate $1.6 million to 23 different community colleges this year. The money will help fund student job training programs. Metallica frontman James Hetfield said he’s grateful the band is part of something that truly changes people’s lives.
