This Thanksgiving week, I am grateful for family, friends and Daughters around the world. I am also appreciative for our historic complex of buildings, including Memorial Continental Hall, DAR’s first home, a beacon of American history. Our House Beautiful stands apart not only as a physical structure but also as a monument to the heroic men and women of the American Revolution. It has seen generations pass through its doors, each leaving an indelible mark on the pages of history. For over a century, this Beaux Arts icon has played a central role in preserving and creating American history. From hosting meetings of world leaders and dignitaries to welcoming countless visitors seeking a connection to their ancestors, Memorial Continental Hall has been a place of inspiration, education and reflection.
To express our gratitude for your generosity, we are making a special commemorative pashmina available to donors contributing $50 or more to our #GivingTuesday campaign before December 31, 2023, while supplies last. But you don’t have to wait—you can make an early #GivingTuesday gift right now and be part of preserving our historic legacy.
Thank you for your unwavering dedication to our mission. May your Thanksgiving be filled with cherished family traditions and very happy memories.
