The EDM DJ passed away in April of 2018.

Avicii's family to start a mental health foundation in his honour.

The Tim Bergling Foundation will "honour his memory and continue to act in his spirit".

The Swedish EDM DJ, real name Tim Bergling, was 28 when he died.

His family now plan to keep his memory alive through the charitable work of The Tim Bergling Foundation, which will “initially focus on supporting people and organisations working in the field of mental illness and suicide prevention.”

“Tim wanted to make a difference,” a statement from the late DJ’s family about the new foundation concludes. “Starting a foundation in his name is our way to honour his memory and continue to act in his spirit.”

Avicii was remembered at a memorial service in his native Stockholm back in November, with hundreds of fans attending the service to pay their respects.
