Instead of keeping the cash, they donated it all to World Central Kitchen, the same charity Colbert had just pledged $2.5 million to. It’s a quirky, heartwarming twist that also highlights the company’s serious stance on protecting Guaraldi’s music — recently suing brands, games, and even the government for unauthorized use. Founded by Lee Mendelson, a longtime collaborator with Charles Schulz and Bill Melendez, the company’s roots run deep in Peanuts history — and this episode’s chaos ended up being a sweet, unexpected capstone to Colbert’s late-night legacy.
