Our Community Involvement Program
The Petersburg-Dinwiddie Crime Solvers is a community involvement program, created to provide a means for citizens to safely and anonymously report information about unsolved crimes and fugitives.
We are a nonprofit organization that is funded primarily through tax deductible donations from businesses, civic organizations, and citizens. The donations are used for rewards paid out to callers. Crime Solvers pays no salary and all media time on tv, radio, as well as newspaper and billboard advertising is provided at no cost to Crime Solvers. Crime Solvers is a non-stock, non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated exclusively to fight against crime in our community.
Petersburg was the third in our area to begin a program, after Richmond and Chesterfield. Petersburg Crime Solvers started in February 1985., with Dinwiddie coming on board in 1986
Petersburg-Dinwiddie crime solvers are seeking community members who are interested in becoming a part of the organization.
