Welcome Message from the Tucson Chapter Regent
Carol Pruitt Schultz
|
|
The Tucson Chapter was founded in February 1915 at a time when World War I was under way in Europe and the United States House of Representatives had just rejected a proposal to give women the right to vote.
Those first members of our chapter were patriotic women who worked hard to make a difference. Our first regent worked for the Department of Agriculture while raising two children.
Today’s members are not much different from those first members. We are married, single, or widowed; some are working full time, some are retired; and some have children and grandchildren and even great-grandchildren.
But most importantly, we are a group of ladies who believe in the ideals of DAR, and who work tirelessly to promote God, home, and country through historic preservation, patriotism, and education. We give back to our community through service to our veterans, literacy promotion, volunteering at our hospitals, giving to our schools, and honoring those patriots who gave of themselves to fight for our freedoms and give us our independence.
We welcome you with pride to the Tucson Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution!
