Chabadmatch just celebrated the 3rd Shidduch in 3 weeks, certainly a first! 78 singles have now got engaged with help from the site. Of the last 8 Shidduchim, 8 different Shadchanim have been involved, which explains the advantage of signing up on Chabadmatch. With one profile, singles benefit from help from a large network of Shadchanim based all over the world, and you never know which one will be able to help you out.
The most recent Shidduch went through Shadchan Daniel Hayman. He encouraged the Chosson to sign up, and upon signing up he was able to search through limited profiles. The limited profiles do not show general information about the single without giving the identity, excluding name, photo, city, references, etc. Daniel shared the profiles and references to both sides, and they went out in NY until they got engaged.

New Feature for Shadchanim
A single recently pointed out to us that Shadchanim have no way of knowing what type of access singles have given to other parent/singles.
The three choices are:
1) No access
2) Limited Access: with no information that can give away the identity of the single such as name, references, and city.
3) Access: Including the single's name, city, and references but no photo or contact info.
We have modified the search format for Shadchanim so that a number appears on the far right column for every single.
0 will indicate no access to singles.
1 will indicate limited access.
2 will indicate Access.

Two Recent Shidduchim!
We are proud to announce two recent Shidduchim on the site:
1) Channa Meyer writes: "This was a Shidduch created virtually! The bochur asked for help online, mentioning he is on Chabadmatch where I am a Shadchan. I signed on, searched, and found a girl that fit what he was looking for. I emailed her mother, and we set the whole thing up by email (and some references phone calls made by each party), it couldn't have been easier!"
2) Dr. Elka Pinson write: "I was contacted by the Chosson via email. A month later the Kallah submitted her profile on the site, it caught my eye, and I sent it to him. They had extensive phone conversations, he flew to meet her, and then she flew to meet him, and they shortly thereafter became engaged."

36th Engagement!
Shadchan: Rabbi Avtzon
Tishrei 5771 / September 2010
The Shadchan was working with the Kallah for some time. When the Chosson signed up, Rabbi Avtzon saw that the profile was a potential match and immediately worked on setting them up.

New Shidduch in Pittsburgh!
Mazal Tov to Shadchan Fraida Estrin and the Chosson/Kalla from the East Coast.
Here is how Fraida describes the shidduch: I've know the Kallah for a while as she lives and works in Pittsburgh.
One day, about a month ago, a Chabadmatch email popped into my mailbox. Frankly, I don't always read them, as I am very busy with lots of things. For some reason, I opened the file and read the description, I thought that it sounded like a possibility for the Kallah.
I called the Kallah and gave her a brief summary before checking him out. When she gave me the go-ahead, I made some calls. At the same time I emailed the Choson with a brief description and his response was interesting. He said that a couple of months ago, he had seen her profile on another dating site, and by the time he went back to pursue it, the profile had been removed. He assumed that she was already engaged.
He came to Pittsburgh the following week, and stayed at our house. The rest is history.
The Pittsburgh community is helping with the Chasana, if anyone is able to help contribute, please contact Fraida Estrin.

Mazal Tov #33!
We would like to wish a hearty Mazal Tov to Gitty Fogel and the Choson and Kallah on a recent Shidduch.
The Kallah signed up on Chabadmatch and introduced herself to Mrs. Fogel. After working together for about a year, a friend of Mrs. Fogel asker her if she had any ideas for her son. Mrs. Fogel immediately thought of the Kallah and the Shidduch was a success.
Yet another Shidduch through singles or parents being proactive by contacting Shadchanim or looking through the limited profiles they have access to.

New Shidduch!
Maza Tov to Shadchan Daniel Hayman and the Choson + Kallah on a recent international shidduch. The shidduch started when the mother of the Kallah saw a profile she was interested in and got in touch with Daniel. Parents of singles being proactive in searching for interesting profiles has proven the best way to take advantage of the site.
