(March. 13, 2025) – The Crime Stoppers of Greater Atlanta committee has voted to increase its standard cash reward from up to $2,000 to $5,000 for anonymous tips leading to arrests of individuals involved in criminal activity.
This bold move underscores the committee’s commitment to enhancing public safety and encouraging more community members to come forward with anonymous tips.
“For nearly two decades, Crime Stoppers of Greater Atlanta has been a critical resource in solving crimes and bringing justice to victims,” said Sgt. Travis Williams, Director of Crime Stoppers of Greater Atlanta and Atlanta Police Department liaison. “By increasing the standard reward, we are sending a clear message: we value community engagement and recognize the power of information in making our streets safer.”
Crime Stoppers operates as a fully anonymous tip line, allowing individuals to provide information without fear of retaliation. Citizens can submit information 24/7 through the Crime Stoppers tip line at 404-577-TIPS (8477), via the CSGA Tips mobile app (P3 Tips in app store and Google Play), online at www.StopCrimeATL.org, or text CSGA to 738477.
This increased reward comes at a crucial time as law enforcement agencies continue to tackle crime and seek greater collaboration from residents. The CSGA committee hopes the new incentive will lead to a higher volume of tips and successful case resolutions.
“Crime Stoppers has been a critical tool in helping law enforcement agencies across Georgia solve crimes,” said Nikki Glanton, Vice President of Communications and Public Affairs at the Atlanta Police Foundation, the nonprofit that raises funds for the reward pool. “By increasing the standard reward, we hope to encourage more people to step forward anonymously. It takes all of us—residents, businesses, media, and law enforcement—working together to protect our communities, schools, and families.”
Crime Stoppers of Greater Atlanta remains dedicated to fostering a safer community through its proven model of crime prevention and anonymous reporting. This new reward increase is made possible through donations of local businesses, philanthropic organizations, and community leaders who share the mission of reducing crime.
