Makkah, The National Center for Non-Profit Sector has announced the completion of its preparations to serve the pilgrims as part of an integrated plan among all government, private, and non-profit sectors to ensure the success of the Hajj season.
Services provided by non-profit organizations, with the participation of volunteers, cover various fields. They range from welcoming and greeting pilgrims at different entry points to offering diverse healthcare services, social services, awareness and guidance, rehabilitation, relief, water provision, food distribution, and more.
The center works on incentivizing volunteer work, especially in crowd management, healthcare services, and logistical support for sectors involved in serving pilgrims.
It also supports non-profit organizations in accommodating volunteers to contribute to various services. This aligns with the Saudi Vision 2030 goals, which emphasize volunteerism and aim to reach one million volunteers.
Moreover, in the healthcare field, volunteer doctor
s and consultants will be present to assist pilgrims with injuries or chronic conditions. A large number of trained paramedics who are capable of handling injuries that pilgrims may experience will also support doctors and consultants.
Additionally, many volunteers will be present to guide lost pilgrims and direct them to complete their rituals.
