JEDDAH: The Saudi Red Crescent Authority has opened volunteer registrations for this year’s Hajj season, continuing its mission to promote volunteerism and encourage community participation in humanitarian services.
As part of the initiative, volunteers are invited to join one of four main tracks, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Monday.
The paramedic track focuses on delivering emergency first aid and rescue services before specialized teams arrive.
The humanitarian track involves offering care and assistance to pilgrims, including distributing snacks, water and guidance.
Those with creative skills can join the media track, which documents volunteer efforts through photography, videography and editing.
Meanwhile, the logistics track supports operations by handling the distribution, transportation, and storage of essential materials and equipment.
The authority encouraged people to register through its volunteer platform, describing volunteering with the Red Crescent as a meaningful opportunity to gain valuable skills, contribute to life-saving efforts and support the wider community.
