Give a Tax-Deductible Gift to DARE

“On to Z!” That was Fred Cassidy’s motto for DARE—a phrase so enduring that it was engraved on his tombstone. But the end of the alphabet (2012) was not the end of the project, and “On Beyond Z!” emerged as the new catchphrase. Volume VI and daredictionary.com were completed in 2013, marking the first milestones “beyond Z.” Updating the electronic text, preparing the massive collection of audio recordings for posting online, and analyzing the data from the Online Survey of Wisconsin English are currently underway.

Your support helps us share DARE’s research and resources with all who wish to explore the diversity of American Englishes for years to come.
