The
Independent Charities Seal of Excellence is awarded to the members
of Independent Charities of America and Local Independent
Charities of America that have, upon rigorous independent review,
been able to certify, document, and demonstrate on an annual basis
that they meet the highest standards of public accountability,
program effectiveness, and cost effectiveness. These standards
include those required by the US Government for inclusion in the
Combined Federal Campaign, probably the most exclusive fund drive in
the world. Of the 1,000,000 charities operating in the United
States today, it is estimated that fewer than 50,000, or 5 percent,
meet or exceed these standards, and, of those, fewer than 2,000 have
been awarded this
Seal.

2008 James E. Kier
Memorial Golf Tournament
It was a perfect day on July 21st, even with the little bit of
rain that fell, and great fun was had by all who attended The
James E. Kier
Memorial Golf
Tournament benefiting The
Landstuhl
Hospital Care Project. Kier employees
thoroughly enjoyed the company of their friends and associates
and appreciate so much their support for this very worthwhile
project.
It was a full tournament with 36 teams, a total of 144
players. There were also 36 hole sponsors contributing $500
per sponsor of which $467 went directly to the Project. Total
cash received from hole contests was $1,080.00, also going
directly to the Project. The Kier Companies will give a
donation of approximately $24,000.00 toward The Landstuhl
Hospital Care Project.

It was with pleasure that James Spliedt
got to personally present the Kier family with a Certificate
of Appreciation on April 13, 2009. Norma
Kier selected LHCP for the 2008 Kier
Memorial Golf Tournament and was held in Ogden Utah on
July 21, 2008. This golf tournament
raised much needed funding for LHCP during this economic
downturn.
