Chippewa County Crime Stoppers is pleased to announce it has received a donation of $2,500 from the Northwestern Bank. These funds will be used to support start-up operations for the newly formed Chippewa County Crime Stoppers. Crime Stoppers is a Nationwide program which has been very effective in Wisconsin communities. The program provides the efforts of the public, law enforcement and the media in a coordinated effort to fight crime. Crime Stoppers programs provide anonymity to those reporting and rewards for helping solve crimes, which helps assure Chippewa County remains a safe, enjoyable place to live, work and recreate.

According to Mik Devereaux, Chippewa County Crime Stoppers Vice President, “Crime Stoppers is a non-profit organization run solely by volunteers. It takes an entire community and businesses such as Northwestern Bank, who continuously give back to their community, in an effort to make Chippewa County a safe enjoyable place to live and work.”
