President's Message

Welcome to the London-Elgin-Middlesex (L.E.M.) Crime Stoppers website! Please take a few moments to peruse the following articles to learn more about the Crime Stoppers Mission and how we work in partnership with the Police, the Media and the Community to make our society a safer place in which to live and work.

This year, L.E.M. Crime Stoppers is celebrating its 20th anniversary. I will start by quashing a very common misconception. We are not a branch or agency of the police or of the government. We are a registered charitable organization that relies solely on private and corporate citizens to support us financially. Our major expenses include paying rewards of tips that lead to various crime solutions. We also organize symposia to educate our children about drugs, bullying, internet crime, gangs, weapons and any other pitfalls that will detract our youth from earning a valuable education and become worthy law abiding members of society. We have even commenced a Senior’s Initiative which is an enhancement to our program, designed to make our older generation more savvy to that small minority who are intent on taking advantage of these vulnerable people.

Our Board of Directors are all volunteers. We do not pay salaries or honoraria. We are just dedicated, private citizens who want our communities to be safer places.

If you know of a crime that your information may solve, call us right now at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). You can also submit tips online through our website. Depending upon the nature of the crime, you can earn a cash reward of up to $2000. You WILL remain anonymous, GUARANTEED!!

I hope you find this website interesting and enlightening.

Sincerely,
Neil Lickorish
