Minnesota State Regent Kathleen Barrett Huston
Welcome to the official website of the
Minnesota State Society Daughters of the American Revolution founded in 1892!
Minnesota Daughters invite you to discover how you can join Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR). Any woman eighteen years or older, regardless of race, religion, or ethnic background who can prove lineal descent from a Revolutionary War patriot ancestor who provided aid to the American Revolution, is eligible for membership.
As a member of our non-profit, non-political women's service organization, you enter a network of over 185,000 women around the world who form lifelong bonds; honor their Revolutionary War ancestors; and promote historic preservation, education, and patriotism in their communities. DAR members nationwide volunteer more than 250,000 hours annually in veterans programs, award thousands of dollars in scholarships and financial aid to students, and support schools for underserved children with annual donations exceeding one million dollars.
As you explore this website, check out our list of 21 DAR chapters located throughout Minnesota, including 11 in the Twin Cities metro. We look forward to meeting you!
