The band has made a donation of $100,000 via the All Within My Hands Foundation to help with California wildfire relief efforts.
The foundation was set up by members of the band in 2017 with the goal of “creating sustainable communities by supporting workforce education, the fight against hunger and other critical local services” and the donation announcement was made on Twitter, Monday night.
Half of the proceeds will go to the Sonoma County Resilience Fund, the other to the Wildfire Relief Fund.
