Mirna Walid – Beirut – Days after the death of American actor Matthew Perry, a foundation bearing his name was established to help those people who suffer from addiction.
The foundation issued an opening statement, in which it said: “In the spirit of giving to Matthew Perry, who has always helped others suffering from the disease of addiction, we begin the journey of honoring his legacy by establishing the Matthew Perry Foundation, guided by his own words and experiences, and driven by his passion.” “This foundation will make a difference in the lives of as many people as possible,” the statement added.
Perry has battled alcohol and drug addiction throughout his adult life, and has spoken publicly about his struggle. Before his sudden death, Matthew gave several pieces of advice to those suffering from addiction, through his memoirs called “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing.” In it, he described drug addiction as a disease that the sufferer should not be ashamed of, but rather try to get the help he needs as quickly as possible, and stressed that there is always “hope for change.”
The Matthew Perry Charitable Foundation website also displayed one of his quotes, which was widely circulated. He said last year: “When I die, I don’t want “Friends” to be the first thing mentioned. I want helping others to be the first thing mentioned, and I will live for the rest of my life. “My life is to prove it.”
It also contained another quote from his 2022 memoir: “Addiction is too strong for any one person to defeat it alone, but together, day after day, we can overcome it.”
