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.

Humane Use of Live Traps Procedures and Policies
(Trap only during our open hours, so we may assist you in a timely manor) |
| 1. | Establish a food site and begin feeding the animal for a few days then place the trap in the same location. Pick up the food at night so you don't attract other animals. This will improve trapping success.
| | 2. | Trap during the day light hours only. Early morning hours are best. |
| 3. | Close down traps at 2PM. We don't want you to trap skunks or night animals. |
| 4. | Cover the trap with a sheet or towel to keep the animal quite and calm. |
| 5. | Set trap in a quite place if possible. Check it every few hours. The animal should not be kept in the trap for a long period of time. |
| 6. | Once in the trap DO NOT OPEN!!! Deliver the animal in the trap. Wear gloves for safety. |
| 7. | Our hours for accepting trapped animals are from 8am - 11am or 12pm to 3pm. Closed Wednesdays, Sundays and Holidays. |
| 8. | Notify your neighbors you will be trapping, so they will not have their pet taken away. We do not want a family pet. We can however, do some education on the safety hazards of allowing your pet to roam. |
