Five Finger Death Punch Donates $200,000 to Support Team USA Judo and BMX Athletes
October 27, 2026
Five Finger Death Punch has marked the close of the North American leg of its 20th Anniversary World Tour with a $200,000 donation supporting Team USA athletes preparing for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles.
The donation benefits athletes in USA Judo and USA Cycling’s BMX Racing and BMX Freestyle programs. Throughout the tour, the band directed a portion of every ticket sold toward the initiative, turning fan support at each show into direct assistance for athletes training to compete on the world stage.
The band presented the donation on October 23 during the final night of the tour at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow, Virginia.
A Personal Connection
Founding guitarist Zoltan Bathory began practicing judo at age nine and continues to compete. He explained that the sport helped shape his discipline, resilience and approach to adversity, making the partnership with USA Judo especially meaningful.
Vocalist Ivan Moody also reflected on his childhood connection to BMX riding and the freedom and balance the sport gave him before music became his career.
The contribution continues Five Finger Death Punch’s long record of supporting charitable and community causes. The band said the initiative is something its members and fans can be proud of together as the 2026 tour cycle concludes.
