What a wonderful way to celebrate Canada Day! 🇨🇦

A huge thank you to our incredible Crime Stoppers volunteers who spent the day at the Mill Woods Canada Day celebration helping kids pick out temporary tattoos and stickers, chatting with families, and sharing information about how Crime Stoppers helps keep our communities safe.

It was a fantastic opportunity to meet so many members of our community, answer questions, and remind people that someone, somewhere knows something - and Crime Stoppers provides a safe and anonymous way to share that information.

To everyone who stopped by our booth, thank you for spending part of your Canada Day with us. And to our amazing volunteers, we couldn't do this without you. Your enthusiasm, kindness, and commitment made the day a tremendous success.

Happy Canada Day from all of us at Crime Stoppers! ❤️🍁

Well… casino week has officially entered the “last minute shuffle” phase. 😅

We’ve just had several volunteer cancellations for our Crime Stoppers Casino this Monday and Tuesday (May 25 & 26), so we are once again looking for a few amazing humans willing to help us out.

If you have a few hours to spare, or know someone who might be willing to volunteer, we would be incredibly grateful. No casino experience is needed and all positions are explained on site.

Every volunteer shift helps support Crime Stoppers programs and community safety initiatives throughout Edmonton and Northern Alberta.

Thank you for always helping us when we need it most. ❤️

Our Crime Stoppers Casino Fundraiser is coming up and we're looking for volunteers to join us and help make it a success.
Casinos are one of the most important ways Crime Stoppers raises funds to support our programs - including rewards of up to $2,000 for tips that lead to arrests.
We currently have day and evening volunteer positions available, and no experience is required. Training will be provided.
If you're interested in volunteering with Crime Stoppers, please email [email protected] or send us a message.
Volunteering is also a great way to meet others who care about community safety. Thank you for helping keep our communities safe.

There’s something powerful about seeing a community come together.

Yesterday, Crime Stoppers was proud to be in Maskwacis alongside RCMP, community leadership, and residents to launch the Rural Sign Campaign within the four nations.

These signs are more than just markers on the roadside. They are a visible reminder that community safety is a shared responsibility, and that everyone has a role to play.

When people know they can share what they see, hear, or know anonymously, it removes a barrier and creates space for action without fear.

As shared during the event, even the smallest piece of information can help prevent violence, remove illegal fi****ms, disrupt drug trafficking, and protect innocent people.

This initiative reflects what’s possible when communities and law enforcement work together toward a common goal: safer communities.

If you know something, you can say something — anonymously.

It’s National Volunteer Week—and we couldn’t let today pass without recognizing one of our own.

Illegal to***co isn't just about the product - it's about how it moves.

Sometimes, this kind of activity isn't obvious - it can look like unusual deliveries or storage in everyday places.

Illicit to***co trafficking can be connected to organized crime networks that impact communities in multiple ways.

Crime Stoppers is not involved in enforcement. Our role is to provide a safe, anonymous way for people to report information about crime in their communities.

If you notice suspicious activity, such as unusual deliveries, storage, or movement of goods - you can report it anonymously.

Illicit to***co isn't always obvious - but it's happening in our communities. Do you know what to look for?
