Riyadh Region Municipality announced the launch of the “Riyadh Volunteers” initiative on December 8, through a unified volunteer day that will bring together the largest number of male and female volunteers to carry out environmental and field activities across various neighborhoods of the capital. The initiative aims to enhance the urban landscape and improve quality of life as part of the Municipality’s programs aligned with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030.

The Municipality invited those interested in participating to register via the link (https://nvg.gov.sa/public). The initiative’s activities will be distributed across several tracks, including general volunteering, skill-based volunteering, and professional volunteering, based on multiple criteria such as environmental and visual priority needs, population density areas, and targeted locations.

The initiative aims for broad participation from government entities in the sectors of education, health, environment, transport, and sports, as well as security and military authorities, the private sector and the Municipality’s partners, the nonprofit sector, media organizations, sports and fitness clubs, and leaders from both government and private institutions.

The initiative focuses on achieving a direct and measurable impact, including the number of sites covered, the amount of waste collected, the number of seedlings planted, and volunteer participation levels. It also aims to support the continuity of environmental and social impact through sustainable partnerships that enhance community engagement in improving the city.

“Riyadh Volunteers” comes as part of the Municipality’s efforts to strengthen a culture of active municipal volunteering and to empower the city’s residents to contribute to improving their urban environment through meaningful actions that support the development of the capital and enhance the quality of life for its residents.
