Avicii tragically took his own life in April last year. His legacy, however, lives on in the hearts and minds of his friends, family, and fans the world over. Now, Avicii’s family are launching the Tim Bergling Foundation.

According to Associated Press, the foundation will “initially focus on supporting people and organizations in the field of mental illness and suicide prevention. It also will be active in climate change, nature conservation and endangered species.”

The foundation will be based in Sweden, where it will focus its efforts, though it may pursue other objectives abroad.

If you are in crisis, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALK to 741741.
