As
one of the founding objectives of the Society, education has always been at the
core
of the many initiativesof the Daughters of the American Revolution. One of the
most
visible of DAR's educational efforts is the long history of supporting schools.
The
theme of the DAR School Committee is "Be wise,
focus on the future with education,"
symbolized
by the wise owl. Whoo gives a hoot about education?
DAR
gives a hoot!
Today,
DAR is kicking off the Give a Hoot DAR Schools Bus Tour interactive
campaign!
In
two weeks, NSDAR leadership will set out on a week-long bus tour of the
DAR
Supported schools and will meet face-to-face with many of the
students touched by
our Friends of DAR Schools Fund. Additionally,
thanks to a generous Daughter, every
donation
made to the fund during this campaign will be matched dollar for dollar up to
$10,000!
Over
the next month we will be highlighting the impact of NSDAR and DAR supported
schools
on children's lives through a series of fun informational quizzes and DAR
Schools tour coverage
on Facebook.
Throughout
the trip, members will be sharing their experiences on Facebook, Twitter and
Instagram.
We invite you to come along for the ride virtually by visiting our Give a Hoot website on Facebook where you will be able to see what people are saying about the schools tour and where you can take quizzes to see how much you know about DAR's impact on education.
