Membership in the Daughters
of the American Revolution (DAR) honors
and preserves the legacy of your patriot
ancestor. Over two hundred years ago,
American patriots fought and sacrificed
for the freedoms we enjoy today. As a

the Society's various programs and
activities, you can continue this legacy
by actively supporting historic
preservation, promotion of education, and

 DAR members are educators,
students, professionals, mothers,
historians, genealogists, and homemakers
who take an active role in their
communities promoting our objectives of
patriotism, education, and historic
preservation. With almost 3,000 chapters
throughout the world, and nearly 180,000
members, we are one of the largest women's
