Volunteer - Children's Home Visit: In 1948, based on the Child Welfare Law, this home was officially
recognized as an institution for maltreated children and named Hiroshima Shudoin. About 120 children from
birth to age 18 live here. HIWC volunteer members visit the home twice a month to play with and enjoy visiting
the toddlers. It is a truly rewarding experience. Please wear appropriate clothing for playing outdoors. In
case of rain, we play indoors. Coordinators will provide transportation to the children's home. Member's
children are also welcome.
