Jennifer Aniston takes over the responsibility of the drive that her beloved friend Matthew Perry started against addiction.

&#8220;Giving Tuesday&#8221; &#8211; Jennifer Aniston Continues Her Friend’s Vision: Urges People to Join Her in Supporting the Matthew Perry Foundation

Jennifer Aniston found it difficult to cope with the sudden death of her beloved
friend Matthew Perry. Insiders revealed she suffered most acutely among the
Friends cast. This was the second time in one year she had lost another close
person to her heart. Before the American star, her father passed away and his
anniversary was just around the corner when this news hit her. Now trying to
recover and regroup herself, the actress has found a new purpose that could have
made her buddy happy.

In a new post, the Murder Mystery star has urged fans to support the Matthew
Perry Foundation with her.


JENNIFER ANISTON CONTINUES THE LEGACY MATTHEW PERRY STARTED 

Jennifer Aniston recently turned to her Instagram to share a post on the story.
It showed the actor-turned-producer asking people to join her and donate to the
Matthew Perry Foundation. “For #GivingTuesday, please join me and Matty’s family
in supporting his foundation – which is working to help those suffering with
addiction,” she wrote. The post also included the inspiring message that Perry
left for this world to fight addiction.

“Addiction is far too powerful for anyone to defeat alone. But together, one day
at a time, we can beat it down,” he once said. Having experienced it himself,
Perry knew how difficult it can be to overcome this problem. It was from this
understanding that he spoke openly about his struggles, even establishing the
Perry House at his Malibu abode. Having people like Aniston who checked up on
him further helped him to recover

from his struggles really well.

Now, after his untimely demise, the same friend has fulfilled his wish by
bringing up this donation, as the Emmy-nominated star did not want to be
remembered just for Friends.


MATTHEW PERRY WANTED HIS MEMORY TO INSPIRE OTHERS 

One year before his death, Matthew Perry talked about how he would like to be
remembered. While promoting his memoir Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible
Thing, he went to the Q with Tom Power podcast in Toronto. “When I die, I don’t
want ‘Friends’ to be the first thing that’s mentioned,” he said. Instead, he
wanted people to mention his name for the good things he did or the people whom
he helped.

He always lent a helping hand to people who struggled with addiction. Being a
savior to someone was much more important for him than being a famous sitcom
star. Now after his step-father, his close friend Jennifer Aniston has made his
wish come true with this donation for the foundation. She reminded people that
he was not Chandler Bing from the comedy-drama, but a person who bravely fought
throughout his life.
