Volunteers
The home has a dedicated group of volunteers who spend their
evenings or weekends teaching and learning from the children at
Ranfurly. Volunteers range from high school students to professionals
who head to the home after work to tutor residents to retired
grandmothers who bake cakes and spend time with the children
on weekdays.
Volunteers are selected by the administrators at Ranfurly.
