At the time of his death, Perry was reportedly worth $120 million (£90m).
Perry had always spoken candidly about his battles with addiction. His loved ones have now set up a charity in his name to help others facing the same issues called The Matthew Perry Foundation.
The charity's website features a quote from Perry himself, who once said: "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. Addiction is far too powerful for anyone to defeat alone. But together, one day at a time, we can beat it down."
