Historical October 1984 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
“Neighbors Against Crime” held its first fund raiser on Fri., Sept. 21, raising over $1,000 from hundreds of neighborhood residents for its “Loretta Reinhardt Crime Prevention Fund.” The fund is named in honor of the owner of Delmar Cleaners, who was brutally robbed and shot in front of her business last month.
As a result of the crime, she is paralyzed.
Although there has been an arrest in this case, “Neighbors Against Crime” decided to begin a special fund to be ready for use if and when there is a need for a reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the perpetrator of such a crime.
The reward would be administered by a committee of Skinker-DeBaliviere residents and 7th District Police. Other suggestions for possible use of the fund are being solicited from donors, and decisions will be made by the special Skinker-DeBaliviere Neighbors Against Crime Committee.
According to a committee spokesman, Neville Vatcha, “the enormous success of the fund raiser shows how much people in Skinker-DeBaliviere care and how much they want to do something about crime.” The committee is in the process of planning other activities for the coming months, according to fund organizer Ed Sanders. Anyone who wishes to contribute to the crime prevention fund may send his donation to the SDCC office, 6008 Kingsbury, St. Louis, MO 63112.
In order for the donation to be tax deductible, checks should be made to the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council and earmarked for the “Loretta Reinhardt Fund.” The “Neighbors Against Crime” wish to thank Alderman Wayman Smith for his contribution of beer and snacks: thanks also go to Pantheon Corporation for soda and the Central West End Savings & Loan for wine for the party.
As a result of these generous contributions, all donations collected have been deposited in the crime prevention fund.
