Addiction is far too powerful for anyone to defeat alone. But together, one day at a time, we can beat it down.

The actor's stepfather also requested donations to the Matthew Perry Foundation. This is not the sort of thing I commonly do, this pitch. But this year is different. And tomorrow is Giving Tuesday. Do what you can; he would have been grateful, Keith Morrison noted.

The late actor's family established the foundation a few days after his death. "The charity's goal is to help others suffering from addiction, defining addiction as a disease, eliminating stigmatizing factors that prevent people from seeking and accessing help, and fiercely advocating for better and fairer treatment. As a family, it's important for us to honor Matthew's legacy. The potential of the Matthew Perry Foundation to help those suffering from this disease is something we proudly share with the world," the charity's website states.

Relatives of Chandler Bing's performer in the popular sitcom quoted one of his last statements. When I die, I don't want «Friends» to be the first thing that's mentioned – I want helping others to be the first thing that's mentioned. And I'm going to live the rest of my life proving that, Daily Mail quoted the actor.

Matthew Perry's body was discovered on October 28 in a jacuzzi at his Los Angeles home. According to the investigation, the 54-year-old man suffered a heart attack and drowned. The cast of "Friends" attended the actor's farewell. Matthew's series partners touchingly said goodbye to him on social media.
