The Sierra Nevada Chapter DAR is offering College/University/Vocational/Technical School Scholarships to all seniors graduating from Washoe County School District high schools in 2023.
A minimum of five nonrenewable $2,000 scholarships will be awarded.
The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution promotes education as one of its central tenets.

“One of the main objectives specified in the first meeting of the NSDAR in 1890 was to promote institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge, thus developing an enlightened public opinion,” says Scholarship Committee Chair Laura Miceli. “We are thrilled to be able to offer these scholarships to students in Washoe County to further promote our Society’s goal.”
