Welcome to Corpus Christi Chapter NSDAR

About Us
The Daughters of the American Revolution is a non-profit, non-political, volunteer women's service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history, and securing America's future through better education.

Consider membership in the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR), a volunteer women's service organization that honors and preserves the legacy of our Patriot ancestors. More than 200 years ago, American Patriots fought and sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy today. As a member of DAR, you can continue this legacy by actively promoting patriotism, preserving American history and securing America's future through better education for children.

Corpus Christi Chapter enthusiastically promotes the DAR mission. The chapter was officially organized May 27, 1927, and named in honor of our historic city. We meet on the third Friday of the month, August through May, unless otherwise determined. Contact us about attending a meeting.

Our Mission

Our Purpose

The purpose of the National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, is threefold-

The members of Corpus Christi Chapter believe in protecting our heritage for future generations.
