The humanitarian mission of the Enjad Search and Rescue Association in service of the community

The association was established as a licensed volunteer entity comprising a select group of qualified and experienced volunteers adept at navigating the challenging geographical terrain of Saudi Arabia, including its vast deserts and rugged mountainous regions. These tireless efforts are part of the growing culture of volunteerism in the Kingdom, aligning with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030, which aims to reach one million volunteers. The association's field teams operate around the clock, equipped with state-of-the-art communication equipment and specially equipped four-wheel-drive vehicles for complex rescue operations, making them a vital and supportive partner for security and civil defense agencies in emergency situations.

Extended community impact and promotion of a wildlife safety culture

The association's role extends beyond responding to emergencies; it has a broad local and regional impact by raising awareness and educating off-road enthusiasts on how to deal with natural hazards. Rescuing hundreds of stranded vehicles weekly directly contributes to protecting lives and property, and reduces the material and human losses resulting from getting lost in the desert. Furthermore, the 36 community initiatives recently implemented by the association promote social solidarity and showcase the positive role of proactive Saudi youth in serving their community, embodying the motto: "The best of people are those who are most beneficial to others.".

Important guidelines for travelers on roads and in desert areas

In closing, the association reiterated its call to all citizens and residents to strictly adhere to safety guidelines before embarking on desert trips. These guidelines include ensuring the vehicle is in good working order, carrying sufficient water and food supplies, accurately determining the destination, and informing relatives of the destination. The association also urged people not to hesitate to seek assistance and report any emergencies or missing persons through its official communication channels, emphasizing that its volunteer teams are always ready to provide support and assistance at any time and under any circumstances.
