SAC – In my experience every shadchan I have ever met is very helpful, the problem is that they are not capable of handling he work-load especially given the inefficiencies in the system. IMO the necessary hishtadlus involves raising community awareness so that each married person in klal yisroel donates maaser of their free time to making shidduchim. A powerful grass roots effort is the way to address this issue. As many posters have noted, in today’s velt families don’t socialize with other families so boys don’t know their sister’s friends and girls don’t know their brother’s friends. This leads to a tremendous limitation in friends redding shidduchim. We have to involve a flood of new people redding shidduchim.
