rescue volunteers
Unpaid crisis responders
Rescue volunteers are people who participate in emergency response or search-and-rescue operations without pay.
They typically receive specialized training and work alongside professional first responders during disasters, wilderness emergencies, or missing-person searches: Rescue volunteers combed the mountains for the lost hiker.
The term functions as both noun phrase and modifier: a rescue volunteer organization.
