National Crime Stoppers Day is a reminder that every tip can make a difference

National Crime Stoppers Day (20 August 2024) is a powerful reminder of our collective strength as a community in the fight against crime. By coming together and sharing vital information, we can make a real difference in keeping the community safe. Crime Stoppers Day isn’t just a date on the calendar. It’s an opportunity for every individual to contribute to the safety of their community. Your actions, your information, can make a tangible impact.

This year, we are reinforcing the crucial role that every piece of information potentially plays. Even the smallest detail could be the missing piece in a puzzle that police are trying to solve. Every tip, no matter how seemingly insignificant, could be a game-changer. We understand it’s not always obvious how your tip contributes to the bigger picture. Investigations can be complex; and sometimes results are not immediately visible. However, your information is valuable and may be the key to cracking a case wide open.

Crime Stoppers offers the option of remaining anonymous when you share what you know, which allows someone to do the right thing without fear, retaliation or having to speak directly with police. Whether your tip leads to a quick outcome or kick-starts an investigation, every contribution matters. You can be confident that when you share what you know online or through our toll-free hotline, you’re making a difference, even if you don’t see obvious results.

As we celebrate National Crime Stoppers Day, we thank you for being a vital part of our community’s safety net. Together, we can create a safer environment for everyone. Stay safe. Stay vigilant. Stay anonymous.
