October 21, 2022 – Today, Great Basin K-9 Search and Rescue was named a finalist among Search and Rescue organizations in the Land Rover ‘Defender Service Awards’. The Utah charitable organization was recognized for its work in training, certifying, and fielding Search and Rescue canines along with their handlers to help locate missing people. As a finalist, Great Basin K-9 Search and Rescue will receive $5,000 from the presenting sponsor, CHASE.
Inspired by endless acts of service across the U.S. and Canada from extraordinary citizens, Land Rover launched the ‘Defender Service Awards’ last year to celebrate U.S. and Canadian-based charitable organizations that are making a positive impact in their local community. To honor the legacy of Defender vehicles aiding organizations who serve their communities, Land Rover will award a specially outfitted Land Rover Defender 130 SUV to the five winning organizations based on Public Vote, to help further their charitable efforts, plus $25,000 from the category sponsor.
Public voting opens October 21, 2022, through November 6, 2022 on LandRoverUSA.com. The winners for all five categories will be announced on November 12, at Destination Defender, a weekend celebration of the Defender lifestyle located in the New York Hudson Valley.
