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.  

 

 

 

ASY and LHCP Team Up

 

Following the America Supports You Freedom Walk in September, LHCP was given surplus t-shirts to distribute to troops overseas and to veterans at home.

 

 

Budget Truck Rental headquarters donated the use of a truck, and t-shirts were delivered to LHCP headquarters for shipment overseas, to American Legions in Virginia for distribution to VA facilities and groups, and to homeless veterans assisted by Operation Stand Down in Alabama.

 

 

From one of our medical contacts in Iraq we heard, “the ‘America Supports You’ t-shirts came in right after Veteran's Day, so we gave them out to everyone we saw in support of that day. Troops were impressed and tickled.”

 

 

From a VA facility in Virginia, we received a letter stating: “The entire staff of this hospital wishes to thank you for the donation of the following: 21 boxes of "T" shirts-72 per box @$4 each total Value of $6,048.00 [LHCP does not determine the value of items donated. This value was determined by the VA hospital.]

 

 

Everything that is done to benefit the veterans at Hunter Holmes McGuire VAMC is greatly appreciated by the patients, the entire staff, and the volunteers. Mere words cannot express how much your donations mean to the patients!”

 

Our ability to distribute these surplus t-shirts in a timely manner is another way LHCP supports our deployed troops and stateside veterans.
