DAR Honor Roll (Daughters of the American Revolution)
Settlement School cofounder and director, May Stone, was among the first generation of women to become active in the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). According to a ledger kept by Ms. Stone, Hindman Settlement School was receiving gifts from DAR chapters as early as 1904. In 1921 the National Society DAR officially approved the school to receive ongoing support. Daughters have been partners in supporting the Settlement School ever since. The DAR Honor Roll recognizes DAR State Societies and Chapters that contribute $1,000 or more during a calendar year. Individual DAR member gifts are recognized through the Settlement’s individual donor clubs.
