Here's just a small sampling of the many ways our Freedom Hill Daughters have served our community over the years.

Each spring and fall, Freedom Hill members have the privilege of greeting veterans as they arrive in Washington, D.C., to tour the national monument of the conflict in which they served. The Honor Flight program serves over 10,000 World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War veterans every year.

Every December, Freedom Hill members help lay wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery to honor our fallen soldiers. We return in January to help pick them up at the end of the holiday season.

transcribing gravestones, falls church, virginia

For the DAR day of service we participated by transcribing gravestones in Falls Church. We took pictures of stones and then uploaded the photos and our notes on what the gravestones said to Findagrave. This important volunteer effort helps people all across the country find their ancestors and trace their genealogy.

Freedom Hill members handed out race packets for the McLean 5K Run with the Warriors a few years back in support of Vinson Hall and their Navy Marine Coast Guard residence foundation.

Boundary stone repair and maintenance

D.C. area DAR chapters maintain many of the 40 original boundary stones that demarcated the District of Columbia. Freedom Hill is fortunate to have three stones within our chapter's geography. NW1 is off of Powhatan Street, NW2 is on Old Dominion Drive, and NW3 is off of Tazewell Street. All three are on residential properties.
