David Thorsen Endowment

The David Thorsen Scholarship Endowment Fund was established by the late David Thorsen. Mr. Thorsen was founding director of the Choral Studies Program at CSUF. During his tenure, David went far beyond the traditional duties of a faculty member. He truly shaped the Choral and Vocal Area into the internationally acclaimed program it has become. His tireless work and dedication is everlasting. Join alumni and friends from the School of Music and honor David and his legacy with a tribute gift today!

Donations to the David Thorsen Scholarship Fund will go directly to support scholarships for our talented students. Your gift is an investment in their artistry and future career, and has a direct and lasting impact on alleviating the financial burdens students face.

A SPECIAL THANKS to the Thorsen-McClung family for their match challenge gift - all gifts will be matched up to $500!
