About us
Ranui135 is a community- led youth organisation based in Ranui, West Auckland. Since 2002, we’ve been creating opportunities for young people to learn how to connect, lead and build confidence through mentoring, creative projects, sport, and community events.
Ranui135 began in 2002 as a grass roots initiative started by local residents and youth who wanted to contribute positively to the young people and community of Ranui.
​
This was in response to challenges in the area at the time that showed Ranui youth led all the wrong statistics for youth in West Auckland when it came to education crime and unemployment
​
This was not a good enough outcome for our young people we knew they had more to offer so they did.
​
so passionate locals came together and engaged our youngsters through positive events and activities investing in and growing youth leadership and community pride this moment was the birth of Ranui135
Grass roots youth initiative
Back in 2002 Ranui135 was the bus route to downtown Auckland.
the young people who began the youth initiative identified the bus as something they had in common.
