One in a Million - More than one million women have found purpose and passion in DAR membership. Explore their stories.

There is no better way to honor your lineage and heritage as a descendant of a Patriot of the American Revolutionary War than to become a member of the DAR.

Membership in the DAR depends on each person’s ability to provide documentation of birth, marriage, and the death of your Patriot and their descendants. A Patriot supported the cause for American independence through military, civil, or patriotic service, which must have occurred between April 19, 1775, and November 26, 1783. See the Accepted Revolutionary War Service webpage for a list of acceptable services.

Members of DAR are a vibrant and active group of women passionate about performing service to their community, preserving history, and educating children. In addition, the DAR woman honors and supports those who serve our nation.
