Sustainability
Our Communities
We believe the journey towards a better working world is community-driven.
That through empowering and supporting those around us today, we can shape a more propsperous tomorrow. For more than 30 years Deane, has proudly donated garments and fabrics to charities and schools.
Today, we donate to local schools, along with The Salvation Army, Dress For Success and the Auckland City Mission. We also provide design expertise and sourcing advice to sustainable menstrual products social enterprise Reemi, and are financial backers of Ronald McDonald House Charities in Australia.

Sadly, the Hertz staff members were caught in the twin Cyclones Judy and Kevin which wiped through Vanuatu recently. They were left with nothing other than their Hertz uniforms they were wearing at the time (left image). Deane wanted to support the Hertz Vanuatu team and have donated 2x polos, and 1x short/skirt each to get them through outside of work (right image).
