Get
involved and get a reward - anonymously!
Citizens are a key link in solving crime. Coachella
Valley residents have more eyes and ears than all our police
officers combined. As a result, members of this community
see and hear things that can be used to help solve crimes
- but sometimes they're afraid to say anything for fear of
retaliation or "getting involved."
Through Crime Stoppers,
witnesses to a crime can give information to the proper authorities
without revealing their identity.
Plus, if the information leads to an arrest, the witness can
earn a reward of up to $1,000 in cash.
That witness
could be you!
How
Crime Stoppers Works
If you've seen suspicious activity, or know
that a crime has been committed, simply call 341-STOP
(7867). You don't have to give your name!
An operator will take your information and assign you a code
number. If an arrest is made, you call Crime Stoppers again,
provide your code number, and a reward will be paid - no questions
asked!
The operator will give instructions about
how to collect your cash reward. You never have to reveal
your identity or sign any receipts.
About Valley Crime
Stoppers
The mission
of Valley Crime Stoppers is to rally the community, news media
and the police in a collective campaign against crime. Our
goal is to help prevent and solve crimes in our community
by giving witnesses a way to provide information anonymously.
The program is a local chapter of Crime Stoppers International,
an organization that grew from the first Crime Stoppers program
established in Albuquerque, NM in 1979. It is run by an all-volunteer
board of directors who come from all walks of life and who
appreciate the value of promoting a safe community.Valley
Crime Stoppers is a non-profit organization that is supported
entirely by donations from local businesses and individuals.
Funds raised are used primarily for the payment of rewards.
Our major fund-raising event is an annual golf tournament
- but contributions are welcome year-round!
