Founded in 1890 and headquartered in Washington, D.C., DAR is dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history, and securing America's future through better education for children.​ As one of the most inclusive genealogical societies in the country, DAR boasts nearly 190,000 members in 3,000 chapters across the United States and internationally. 

​

From memorials commemorating our veterans to restorations of cultural sites, the NSDAR has supported historic preservation as one of the three main mission areas since its founding. 

​

The DAR is Passionate about Educating America’s Youth through a variety of different programs, contests and awards, including scholarships, to help further this goal.

 

Love of country was the purpose; patriotism is the foundation of the many DAR activities that take place in local communities across the country.
