Donate via Givealittle

New Zealand's most trusted fundraising platform.

Our Givealittle page makes it easy to give any amount, and every dollar goes into the pool fund. The pool is a volunteer-run incorporated society rather than a registered charity, so donations aren't tax-deductible. They do stay entirely in Cust.

Working bees, events and a hand at the gate. There's plenty to do before opening day.

Spread the Word

Not in a position to give right now? Telling people helps just as much. Plenty of old Cust families would want to know the pool's coming back. Copy one of these.

Good news. The Cust Community Pool is being relined and reopens for summer. New fibreglass surface, no more leaks, warmer and cleaner water. The community's raised most of the $108,000 and season keys are about to go on sale: https://custpool.co.nz/

Hey, the Cust pool is getting a full reline and opens again this summer. Season keys are about to go on sale, and they're still raising the last of the $108k: https://custpool.co.nz/

Be in the water this summer

Season keys are the simplest way to back the pool. You get the whole summer, and the pool gets the last of what it needs.
