Historic Preservation

Historic Preservation

Our founding members envisioned our organization perpetuating the memory and spirit of the individuals who achieved American independence. To fulfill this objective, DAR members engage in an array of projects to help preserve our cultural heritage. We accomplish this by restoring and maintaining historical sites in our area, participating in various memorials and commemorations honoring individuals and significant historic events that have been a part of our history and preserving genealogical records, historic documents, and precious artifacts.

Education

Education

Our DAR members are passionate about educating the youth about our American history and the principles of our democratic government, fostering an appreciation for our great country, and guiding them in becoming good citizens. We do this by providing scholarships, promoting education and citizenship through youth programs such as Children of the American Revolution, DAR Good Citizens, Junior American Citizens, and sponsoring American history essay contests for youth in grades five through twelve.

Patriotism

Patriotism

Our love of country is evident in the variety of patriotic endeavors our members pursue. A challenge was issued to all DAR members to invest in community service to give back to our communities. Our Nevada members were exceedingly generous with their time by volunteering in their communities for a total of 54,697 hours in 2021! We volunteered at Veterans hospitals, sent care packages to current service personnel overseas, welcomed home and honored our veterans returning from Honor Flights, participated in Naturalization Ceremonies, promoted Constitution Week, presented patriotic awards to deserving individuals, and much, much more!

Hello from Nevada!

Welcome to the Nevada State Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSSDAR)!

NSSDAR is a nonprofit service organization and part of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR). Our members are committed to three important areas of service: education, patriotism, and historic preservation.

Nevada is proud to have 18 chapters and more than 900 members serving communities throughout our state. For more than 100 years, Nevada DAR members have made a difference in the lives of others—and we continue to grow stronger every year.

Bethney Anne Seifert, Nevada State Regent

Our members honor and support veterans, provide educational programs for Nevada students, award scholarships to high school and college students, and recognize outstanding Nevada volunteers and citizens who have contributed to our communities and our state.

We work alongside schools, communities, civic leaders, and organizations to preserve and share Nevada’s history and bring important historical places, people, and stories to the forefront. Our programs include conservation, Americanism, U.S. Flag education, literacy promotion, women’s issues, and many other areas of community service.

Could DAR Be Your Next Chapter?

Have you ever wondered whether you have an ancestor who supported the American cause during the Revolutionary War? Our experienced genealogists can help you explore your family history and determine whether you may have a Revolutionary ancestor.

Membership in DAR is about more than genealogy. It is an opportunity to serve your community, your state, and your nation, build lasting friendships, honor those who came before us, and help shape a stronger future for generations to come.

We invite you to discover your history, find your purpose, and join us in service across Nevada.
