Editor,
On behalf of Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana let me thank the hundreds of people who again made our October Shred It event in Carmel another record success.
Twice yearly, Crime Stoppers holds these events at various locations around the metro area in order to allow people to safety shred their personal documents for a nominal tax deductible donation. This program is a smart way to safeguard yourself against identity theft, one of the fastest growing crimes in the nation and around the world.
A special thanks to the Carmel Current for once again being so generous to donate print advertising and promoting Shred It in the weeks leading up to our event. Coverage in the Current is always extremely effective in driving more people to this great cause.
Another kudos to Chief Tim Green and the Carmel Police Department for their presence in coordinating traffic and making the event a safe place to be. Thanks, also, to all of our volunteers.
Although our board is made up of individuals from all levels of law enforcement, Crime Stoppers is non-profit. We depend on donations to help us continue to operate our anonymous tips program. Your generosity has resulted in us setting new records for information leading to the arrest of dangerous felons in Central Indiana. We are proud of that.
If you want more information on Crime Stoppers, to report a tip or make a donation just go to CrimeTips.org.
