Louisiana State Society
Daughters of the American Revolution

The Louisiana State Society of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR), was founded in 1895 and has nearly 2,700 members and 43 chapters located throughout the state. We are proud to be part of the NSDAR, which has members across the United States and twelve countries abroad.

 

Our members are lineal descendants of the men and women Patriots who founded this country.  We continue to advance the principles on which our country was founded by volunteer service in:

Historic Preservation, Education, and Patriotism 

 

The Louisiana State Society, DAR (LSDAR), proudly lives out the National Society's mission of Historic Preservation, Education, and Patriotism through meaningful service across our state. We invest in Louisiana's future by offering scholarships to students pursuing higher education, honor our veterans through countless hours of service, and support our active-duty military and their families. Our members are dedicated to preserving Louisiana's rich history by protecting and promoting historic sites and landmarks.

Most of our chapters proudly support Wreaths Across America by sponsoring and hosting local remembrance ceremonies that honor the service and sacrifice of our nation's veterans. Each year, we also celebrate Constitution Week, September 17–23, by partnering with schools, libraries, and community organizations to promote the U.S. Constitution through educational programs and public events. On October 11, our members unite across Louisiana to commemorate the DAR National Day of Service through volunteer projects that strengthen our communities while honoring the enduring legacy of patriotism and service.
