WebChaver was founded in 2008, as a small project for their local community in Jerusalem. Since then, we have grown to become a world recognized name in the Jewish Orthodox community. The WebChaver program has spread to all corners of the globe, to nearly every country where Observant Jews are found. Individuals, families, schools and businesses, from Australia to South America and from New York to London, have discovered the effectiveness of WebChaver.
Our non-profit organization is dedicated to the encouragement and education of internet safety to assist people in accessing the internet in a safe way, that conforms with the moral standard of our community:
WebChaver works closely with TAG (Technology Awareness Group), which operates over 50 offices worldwide and provides free filter installation, device guidance, and live tech support for community members. Through this partnership and our collaboration with other community organizations, we are able to reach and assist families and institutions across the globe.
WebChaver does not in any way promote internet use. WebChaver is designed to help those who are already using the internet for legitimate uses, to do so as safely as possible. We strongly encourage the use of a filter in addition to WebChaver, to prevent accidental stumbling upon objectionable material.
