Search and rescue is an amazing, generous, and honorable activity... that is also dangerous and requires training. If you want to join search and rescue efforts, you can go through training or donate to the cause (https://greatnonprofits.org/categories/view/search-and-rescue-squads_). People might join this effort as a natural segue from their current line of work, to gain notoriety, to feel helpful, or because they're bored. There are also several types of search and rescue.
