NEADY Cats Receives Award of Excellence

The Independent Charities "Best in America" seal of excellence is awarded to those 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. Of the one million charities operating in the US 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 of Excellence.
