Who We Are

Help that shows up — every hour, every road.

Chavivim Montreal
4,000+ Calls answered last year — every one of them free.

When something goes wrong on the side of the road in Montreal — a flat at midnight, a dead battery in a parking lot, a flood pushing into your driveway — someone has to come.

Since 2018, that someone has been Chavivim.

Montreal's Orthodox community is concentrated in Outremont, Côte-des-Neiges, Snowdon and the Mile End, and that's where we live and respond. Quebec winters are unforgiving — dead batteries on a minus-twenty morning, cars buried after an overnight snowfall, lockouts when the temperature is dropping fast — so a lot of our calls are the kind where waiting an hour for a tow simply isn't an option. When the phone rings, the closest available volunteer rolls, day or night, every day of the year. We're part of the worldwide Chavivim network — same dispatch playbook, same standards — and we coordinate with sister divisions across Canada, the US and beyond whenever a call needs more than the local team.

Locally, we're who you call when waiting isn't an option, when towing isn't the answer, and when you'd rather hear a familiar voice on the other end.

If you're stuck, call. There's nothing too small.

It's not a service. It's a promise — that when you need help, someone will answer, and someone will come.

How We Operate

Local volunteers. Wider network. Real training.

The faces in Montreal are local — but the playbook, the standards, and the dispatch model come from a bigger volunteer-run organization that's been refining them since 2018.

Part of something bigger

Chavivim Montreal is the local face of Chavivim.

Chavivim is a volunteer-run emergency-response network built around a single idea: when someone calls, someone comes. Same dispatch model, same training standards, same promise — applied locally by people who live here.

715+ Trained volunteers across the network

Trained & equipped

Volunteers — held to a real standard.

  • Roadside & recovery Tire changes, jump-starts, lockouts, fuel delivery, winch recovery, scene-safety practice — covered before a member ever takes a call alone.
  • Continuous drills Refreshers, equipment checks, and incident-management practice — never one-and-done. The first call to a new member should look like their fiftieth.
