About us

We at Chaverim of Baltimore pride ourselves with our record of distinguished services to our community. It is with great enthusiasm that we introduce you to our organization, which emerged from its modest start in 2007 to the organization that we are today.

Chaverim of Baltimore was launched by a group of concerned individuals eager to provide non-emergency, volunteer aid that would be within the capacity of a grass roots organization. Working to assist motorists stranded due to minor hurdles, such as car lockouts, flat tires or running out of gas, as well as helping the elderly & handicapped in our community with their daily needs, the Chaverim of Baltimore hotline has been handling dozens of calls weekly, with an astonishing 60,000 calls logged to this date.

Chaverim of Baltimore encompasses a network of 50 volunteers, equipped with an advanced dispatch and communication system. New recruits are screened and background checked to ensure their competency. This is followed by an extensive training course, which includes live presentations, to lay emphasis on efficiency and professionalism. Equipment is then distributed to the volunteers to gear them up for the task.
