Support of the Annual Fund Helps Keep KDS Steadfast, Loyal, and Ever True




Kate Duncan Smith DAR School is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding this year. Although much has changed at KDS over the last 100 years, our mission to provide opportunities for educational and personal growth for students, while emphasizing patriotism, responsible citizenship, and the historical legacy of the school remains the same today as it did in 1924. That mission is even more important today than ever.


With your dedication and ongoing support, Kate Duncan Smith DAR School is poised to do great things. We ask you to continue supporting the Steadfast, Loyal, Ever True Annual Fund campaign to help KDS remain:


  • Steadfast to our mission of instilling in children a sense of patriotism and an understanding of American ideals through the teaching of our nation’s history, promotion of responsible citizenship, and participation in DAR contests and programs

  • Loyal to the day-to-day maintenance and upkeep of a picturesque 240-acre campus and forty buildings, including the cost of insurance and utilities

  • Ever True to perpetuating our unique history and traditions and bolstering heritage and community education initiatives designed to strengthen our connection with our roots


As a token of our appreciation, donors who give $100 or more in 2024 will receive a limited edition, KDS Centennial Commemorative Coin. This beautiful coin features our iconic Pennsylvania Belltower on one side and the school's scenic overlook from high atop Gunter Mountain on the other.





What better way to celebrate your ties to KDS DAR School than by making a gift during this centennial year! Through your generous support, you make it possible for KDS DAR School to foster a learning environment where all are empowered to succeed and aspire to excellence. Our dedicated students, faculty, and staff contribute daily to meaningful work in support of our mission, and your generosity inspires us to reach the highest levels of achievement in this 100th year and beyond.
