English: Manawatū Willard Children's Home and Orphanage, Russell Street - photo by K H Shea circa 1939, archived at Manawatū Heritage, Palmerston North City Library, New Zealand. Opened in 1917 under the leadership of Priscilla Crabb, president of Palmerston North Women's Christian Temperance Union, it served as a hostel for soldiers' wives and children during World War I then a home for orphaned or indigent children (housing as many as 19 children and 2 staff by the 1920s). It was named after WCTU leader Frances Willard. The children attended Terrace End School. The home was sponsored by the Women's Christian Temperance Union of New Zealand and co-funded by several local district councils. The building was sold in 1964 to Presbyterian Social Services Association and now known as Willard Elderly Care. See original at
