Keep and expand these organizations are similar to Hatzalah. It just needs to be expanded. Yossiea ^(talk) 16:37, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a well-known and significant chesed (humanitarian) organization in Haredi communities on the East Coast, along with Hatzalah, Shomrim, and Misaskim. Note: The name should be spelled Chaveirim, since that's the way it's pronounced and that's where more hits can be found (here and here and here). Yoninah (talk) 21:00, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep... if someone commits to improve it forthwith. Otherwise, let it go. Yoninah - 74000 Google hits with this spelling v 34,400 with the extra "i" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dovid (talk • contribs) 00:06, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Really? What search engines are you using? The "news" link above yields only 2350 hits for "Chaverim". Aside from its website, Chaveirim generally shies away from publicity, so most of those 74000 hits that you found were to Reform congregations, camps, and general usage of the term chaverim (friends). The links that I cited in my vote were to a scattering of news stories that mention in passing the organization named Chaveirim. Yoninah (talk) 08:48, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
