The Giveback Program

For 20 years Saben founder, designer and creative director Roanne Jacobson has lead the way, creating timeless, covetable accessories designed to be by your side for years to come.

A firm believer of "fewer more beautiful pieces", we are proud to continue our commitment to extending the life of your Saben piece with the Giveback Program.

We invite Sabenettes around New Zealand to join our circular giveback program, re-homing your pre-loved Saben, all while giving back to one of our favourite charities.

What is the Giveback Program?

What is the Giveback Program?

It’s simple, if you have a Saben bag that doesn’t get as much wear as it deserves (we get it, life changes, the Tilly you purchased 5 years ago, isn’t big enough to keep the kids snacks, or your new work laptop).

You'll send it to Saben Giveback HQ in exchange for a $50 Saben voucher to use towards your next purchase. We'll clean, refurbish and make small repairs if necessary before finding a new home for your Saben piece at our annual sample sale. We will donate 100% of the sale to charity.

  3. As a thank you, you'll receive a $50 voucher to spend on your next purchase.
  4. We'll refurbish your piece and sell it at our annual workroom sale, and donate 100% of the sale to one of our charity partners (chosen by our Saben community).
  5. Your Saben piece goes on to live it's best life with someone else, keeping it in the bag economy!

If your bag isn’t in a condition that we feel we can sell at our Archive Sale (hey, we get it, our bags are used day in, day out and over the years, they can start looking very well worn). If this is the case with your bag, we thank you for wanting to be involved in our Giveback Program but your bag won’t be accepted if it’s not in a quality resalable condition.

It will be cleaned and priced, and stored until our Archive Sale where it will be available for purchase by a lucky lucky customer, and the money donated to charity.

All the money from our Giveback Scheme will be donated to charity.

We will donate it to one of our charity partners like Dress For Success or Women’s Refuge.

We’re letting our community choose - you'll see a poll go out on social media before the sample sale, and we will update this page.
