Tuesday night's Metallica concert at Scotiabank Place is helping to fill the shelves at the Ottawa Food Bank.
Metallica has donated a portion of each ticket to the sold out show to the Food Bank, delivering a cheque for $87-hundred to the agency.
Executive Director Peter Tilley says every dollar donated to the Ottawa Food Bank generated $5 worth of food into the community.
