About Canopy

Another avenue for finding a shidduch

Facilitating shidduchim is not a niche cause, but an urgent need that affects nearly every frum family at some point. For individuals waiting to get married, the shidduch process may be exceedingly lonely and humbling.

Canopy responds to that critical need — not only to make shidduchim, but to do it in a refined, sensitive, and efficient way. None offers the unique mix of features that we do: privacy, autonomy, efficiency, and a 1:1 ratio of men to women.
