About The Matthew Perry Foundation

Less than a week after his death, a foundation was established in the name of Matthew Perry to help people dealing with addiction.

“In the spirit of Matthew Perry’s enduring commitment to helping others struggling with the disease of addiction, we embark on a journey to honour his legacy by establishing the Matthew Perry Foundation, guided by his own words and experiences, and driven by his passion for making a difference in as many lives as possible,” said the inaugural statement establishing the Matthew Perry Foundation.

The Emmy-nominated Friends star often spoke publicly about his struggles with drug and alcohol addiction. The foundation, which has been accepting donations, cited his desire to be remembered as someone who helped others with substance abuse even more than his sitcom stardom.

The foundation will be maintained by the National Philanthropic Trust. 

Matthew was declared dead at age 54 after paramedics found him unresponsive at his Los Angeles home on October 28.  He starred along with Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer for 10 seasons on NBC’s Friends.
