National Society Of The Daughters Of The American Revolution

The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution empowers women to preserve American history, promote education, and foster patriotism through community service and advocacy, honoring the contributions of women in the nation's founding.

Welcome and Background✉️ Inspired by Abigail Adams&#39; call to &quot;remember the ladies,&quot; the NSDAR Junior Membership Virtual 5k continues its six-year tradition of highlighting women&#39;s contributions to the American Revolution. 🩷 This year, we honor Nancy Ward (Nanye&#39;hi), a Cherokee &ldquo;Beloved Woman&rdquo; and tireless advocate for peace and diplomacy between the Cherokee Nation and American Colonists. Her words - &quot;Let your women&#39;s sons be ours and our sons be yours&quot; - &nbsp;are featured on this year&#39;s race medal. The fan-shaped medal is part of a three-year design. When combined with the next two years&#39; medals, the set will form a complete circle. The medal image is shown on the registration page.
