welcome you to South Carolina!

The South Carolina Society of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution has been active since 1891.   Since the beginning, daughters have worked to serve God, Home, and Country and promote the objectives of the DAR.   

Today, there are 73 chapters with approximately 4,000 members participating in the volunteer projects of the SCDAR.  South Carolina Daughters participate in naturalization ceremonies, flag presentation and flag programs, literacy programs, schools events with Junior American Citizen clubs and contests, and give ROTC, DAR Good Citizens and Good Citizenship Medals. They plant trees, shrubs and flowers for the environment. They recycle. They conduct American History Contests and give American History Teacher Awards. They give scholarships. They place historical markers honoring people, buildings, and sites which remind us of our ancestors who fought for the freedoms we now enjoy.

The project closest to the heart of South Carolina Daughters, who rallied to the need of the mountain children of South Carolina in 1919, is Tamassee DAR School. Support, both financial and physical, is given lovingly by the South Carolina Daughters. The South Carolina Daughters maintain the oldest building on campus, the Grace Ward Calhoun Cottage.
