David Norris was a long-time volunteer of Quatrefoil Library and helped our scholarship program since its inception. In his memory, we have named our scholarship for him. Read our tribute to David Norris to learn more about him.

Our scholarship is a one-time, $1,000 scholarship open to all high school seniors or college students who are/will be attending college within the State of Minnesota. Quatrefoil is one of the country’s oldest and largest LGBTQ+ lending libraries and also serves as a community center.

Check back in 2024 for our call for applications!
