As our country moves toward the upcoming celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Daughters have countless opportunities to promote our nation’s vibrant history, and the importance of our Patriots and the Daughters of the American Revolution.
What better way to achieve these goals than to apply for a $500 Celebration Grant from NSDAR? These grants are the Wright Administration’s President General project, and are intended to celebrate and inform our communities about the founding of our nation and the Patriots that achieved American Independence, to encourage the study of family history, and promote DAR membership.
Projects, events, or activities considered for grants must support the NSDAR America 250! vision of celebrating the 250th birthday of the United States of America and the Patriots who achieved American independence. Events could be a booth at a community-wide event, establishing a permanent walk-up kiosk, a short video production, marking or rehabilitating a Patriot grave–the possibilities and scenarios are endless.
These one-time $500 grants are designed to help DAR chapters celebrate America’s 250th birthday with vibrant and visible participation within their communities. Multiple chapters can also combine their grants for larger projects.
