SOAP Q: Fans launch Doctors Without Borders campaign in honor of Sheffer Stevens (Dr. Reid)!

Since the show ends THIS week and all episodes were completed months ago, we know that is not going to happen.

If you need a way to channel out grief at the loss of the character brought to life by the brilliant Eric Sheffer Stevens, some fans have come up with the Eric Sheffer Stevens Doctors without Borders campaign.

According to LoveLure (the Luke and Reid blog), fans of Eric/Reid wanted to find a way to show our appreciation for the actor. A charity drive was suggested, and Eric nominated Doctors without Borders as a charity he is invested in, and in honor of the character of Dr. Reid Oliver.

The campaign raised over $3000 in its first 24 hours, nearly twice that in its first week, and reached its initial goal of $15,000 shortly after Tragic Last Tuesday’s episode.
