Rock legends Rush have partnered with Fantoons to release a limited-edition T-shirt, with proceeds benefiting victims of the recent devastating earthquakes in Venezuela.

All proceeds from the shirt will be given to Hogar Bambi, a charity devoted to the orphaned and abandoned children in Venezuela.

Two powerful earthquakes struck Venezuela on June 24, followed by more than 430 aftershocks. More than 2,500 people have been confirmed dead and over 12,000 injured, with the death toll expected to rise.

Fantoons is a Venezuelan production company that has produced illustrations and animations for Rush, as well as acts like Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, and more.

Rush are currently in the midst of their “Fifty Something” reunion tour. They recently postponed two Fort Worth, Texas shows due to Geddy Lee’s battle with bronchitis and laryngitis. The North American run is scheduled through December.

Meanwhile, Metallica have announced a $100,000 donation to the organization Direct Relief through the band’s All Within My Hands charity foundation.

“AWMH’s $100,000 grant will support Direct Relief as the organization continues to respond to requests in the region as they become known,” a press release reads.
