In honor of Quentin Coldwater, and in response to his untimely death in the Season 4 finale of The Magicians, we made this charity campaign to support people like him.

About this campaign
Like so many fandoms before, fans around the world have come together to grieve yet another dead queer character on our screens, with the death of Quentin Coldwater in the Season 4 finale of The Magicians. Those who identified with Quentin’s sexual identity, and his lifelong battle with depression and mental illness, remind each other that his story might be over, but not ours. And fans have been busy finding ways to honor his memory and the struggles his character went through on our screens. In addition to this t-shirt campaign, there is the “Thank Q” campaign, which has raised over $6,500 so far — you can find it, share it, and donate to it here.
Quentin Coldwater belongs to us now.
