Crime Stoppers of Wellington County is a community-based organization that brings the public, media, and police together in a cooperative team effort to help solve crime. This is accomplished by offering cash rewards and guaranteeing anonymity to callers.

Crime Stoppers of Wellington County is NOT a police program but a non-profit charitable organization that is  funded by tax-deductible donations from the private and corporate sectors and receives NO government funding to pay our callers.

A group of dedicated, concerned citizens make up the voluntary civilian Board of Directors and are responsible for all the decision-making and fundraising to promote awareness about the program and pay our callers for their valuable information.

Crime Stoppers encourages people to call with any information about any crimes already committed, those about to occur, or the whereabouts of wanted persons. Crime Stoppers is a program that allows you, the citizen, to get involved in solving crime with no risk to yourself.

When you call Crime Stoppers, you will never be asked to give your name, never have to testify in court, and if your information leads to an arrest or a closed case, you may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000.
