Greeley, Colorado
Welcome to the Centennial State Chapter, NSDAR, website!
The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in 1890 and incorporated in 1896 by an Act of Congress. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., the NSDAR (or DAR) is a nonprofit, bipartisan women’s service organization. Designed to honor the memories of our Patriot ancestors who fought or gave service during the American Revolutionary War, DAR focuses on three main areas: historic preservation, education, and patriotism.
Centennial State Chapter, NSDAR, is one of 48 chapters in the Colorado State Society. Chartered in 1904, our chapter proudly serves the Greeley, Colorado, area. We enthusiastically uphold the values and goals of our society through our various activities and projects. In addition to the common bond of patriotic lineage, lasting friendships are forged and fellowship is enjoyed by all members. Our service also supports the national DAR motto, “God, Home, and Country.”
Centennial State Chapter, NSDAR, has more than 90 members and associate members. We are always excited to welcome new members.
