North Okanagan Shuswap Crime Stoppers is a non- profit crime fighting organization that relies on the support of the community and the generosity of supporters to continue our vital work.
Crime Stoppers is a program that empowers regular people to fight back against crime. Anyone can submit an anonymous tip by using our tips line or website; and if that tip leads to an arrest the individual will receive a reward for their efforts.
We don't need your name - we don't ask for ID. 100% anonymous.
Crime Stoppers operates in over 20 countries worldwide and since the very first program started in 1976, we have become the number one community based crime solving organization in the world. Our local Crime Stoppers has been stopping, solving and preventing crime in the North Okanagan Shuswap since 1989! Our vision is to reduce crime and make the North Okanagan Shuswap area a safer place.
If you are passionate about community safety, enjoy fundraising and are a team player you just might be what we’re looking for!
North Okanagan / Shuswap Crime Stoppers is a non-profit community crime fighting organization and we are currently recruiting volunteers and volunteer board members to help with our program..
Board members take on various tasks from promotions, fund raising, community events and special projects. We require you to attend one board meeting per month and a few hours of your time with like-minded professionals and community members.
If you are not interested in being on the board but would still like to volunteer, we have many events where you can promote the program to the public. Help us make the North Okanagan and Shuswap a safer place, please contact us at [email protected]
Through Crime Stoppers, citizens are able to safely and anonymously report knowledge of criminal activity by calling our 1-800-222-TIPS(8477) phone line or visiting our secure online webtip submission form.
Tipsters providing information leading to an arrest or charges are eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000 - thanks to fundraising and donations submitted to the Crime Stoppers Society.
Volunteers also play an integral role in Crime Stoppers: in committees, helping with projects, attending events, helping sell items or tickets, working on special events and providing person power or expertise.
