The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, DAR or NSDAR, is a lineage-based membership service organization for women who are directly descended from a person involved in supporting the American Revolution.[1] A non-profit group, the organization promotes education and patriotism. Its membership is limited to direct lineal descendants of soldiers or others of the American Revolution era who aided the revolution and its subsequent war. Applicants must be at least 18 years of age and have a birth certificate indicating that their gender is female. DAR has over 190,000 current members[2] in the United States and other countries.[3] The organization's motto is "God, Home, and Country".[4][5][6]
