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.

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, “
‘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: 
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.
