The Children’s Christmas Pudding Fund

The Children’s Christmas Pudding Fund had its inception in the Spring of 1965 when spurred on by a group of public-spirited ladies met to mix the first Christmas puddings. Their intention was to raise funds by selling them to help a needy Crèche at Raapkraal. This fund has continued since then and every year collected donations and mixed and steamed puddings to raise funds for children’s charities.

Now, 58 years later, in September 2023 we mobilised a willing band of volunteers to weigh 2000 kilogrammes of ingredients in preparation for the mixing and steaming by CPUT of Jean McGregor’s original recipe to produce 2000 puddings. When sold, these puddings will raise over R50 000 for each of the 5 participating charities of which Woodside SCC is one of the charities.

We kindly ask for your support in this initiative to meet our target.
