Below is a current list of organizations that currently have representatives, with Township Solicitor’s permits. Each person must provide the police department with an up to date clean background check before the picture I.D. is issued. Residents should always ask to see the township-issued solicitor permit if someone knocks at their door to solicit. Call the Non-Emergency police number (215) 328-8524 if you have concerns.
For fees please see the CRIMEWATCH page.
Application to Solicit
Soliciting is only allowed with a proper permit. Permits can only be obtained at the police department. The applicant must provide photo identification, and the results from a criminal record check from the Pennsylvania State Police. Non-profit groups are exempt from the fee, but should still notify police when they are going to be working in the area. Anyone with intent to solicit within Newtown Township must submit an application, as well as a criminal background check completed through the Pennsylvania State Police.
