The purpose of the KAUST Volunteer Fire Department (KVFD) is to enable members of the community to contribute to protection and emergency response in the unlikely event of a large incident.
If you answered yes to the above, the KVFD might be for you!
The KVFD meets at the Fire Station on a weekly basis. Trainings consist of classroom learning and practical training in the fire station and at our purpose-built fire training rig.
Attend a KVFD taster session
August 31 from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m.
KAUST Fire Station
Be a firefighter for the night! Get a tour of the trucks and station, try out hose running and the jaws of life, and more. This event is targeted at KAUST residents aged 18+.
Even if you can’t make it to the taster session, new volunteers are always welcome. To determine if KVFD is right for you, simply come along any Wednesday evening at 7:00 p.m. or email KVFD@kaust.edu.sa for more details.
