Preserving History, Advancing Education, and Fostering Patriotism.
The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) was founded in 1890 and is headquartered in Washington, D.C. It is a non-profit, non-political women's service organization.
DAR members are direct descendants of patriots who fought or gave aid for the cause of American independence. We are dedicated to promoting historic preservation, education, and patriotism within the community.
Restoring and maintaining historic sites, as well as preserving genealogical records and artifacts that document the nation's history.
Supporting schools, providing scholarships to outstanding students, and promoting literacy and good citizenship.
Encouraging love of country, supporting active military personnel and veterans, and honoring national symbols.
The term "DAR" also frequently refers to an academic and school administration context.
In an educational context (specifically in regions like Alberta, Canada), DAR refers to a Detailed Academic Report. This is an official document that serves as a detailed but unofficial transcript of grades.
Important Note: If you are looking for academic transcripts, please contact your local government education portal or the relevant school institution (e.g., myPass Alberta).
