“#’Jeopardy!’ & Alex Trebek’s Family Donate the Late Host’s Clothes to Charity”
At least, the memory of his kindness has resulted in the show and his family donating the late great’s clothes to charity.
The Jeopardy!Twitter page announced the news that they’d given a “large portion” of Alex’s wardrobe to The Doe Fund, an organization that provides work, housing, and training to underserved individuals who have struggled with addiction, homelessness, and incarceration.

In a chain of tweets, the show detailed just how many items had been donated, citing 14 suits, 58 dress shirts, 300 neckties, 25 polo shirts, and 14 sweaters among the articles of clothing. It was a family affair during the process as Trebek’s son Matthew assisted in gathering the items.
The garments were packed by Matthew Trebek, Alex’s son who has been a supporter of the Doe Fund, and Steven Zimbelman, Jeopardy!’s costumer. The clothes will be distributed to participants in The Doe Fund’s reentry program, “Ready, Willing and Able” to be worn on job interviews. pic.twitter.com/o9BdjjPcze
