The United States Daughters of 1812 Support St. Francis House
The United States Daughters of 1812 (USD 1812) have consistently demonstrated their commitment to supporting various causes, including donating to St. Francis House. The USD 1812 chapter in Hot Springs Village has arranged for donations of coats and other essential items to St. Francis House, showcasing their dedication to helping those in need.
This charitable effort is in line with the organization’s broader mission to promote patriotism and mark historic sites. The Major Francis L. Dade Chapter, for example, was organized in 1948 and has worked tirelessly for 75 years to promote these values.
The United States Daughters of 1812, formed in 1890, commemorates the bravery and sacrifices of the American soldiers who fought in the War of 1812. The war itself had a significant impact on the country, leading to the establishment of permanent taxes and military institutions that shaped the nation’s character and national feelings. Through their various activities, the USD 1812 keeps alive the spirit of patriotism and community service during this pivotal moment in American history.
