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.
