Protecting Water. Preserving Beauty. Pledge to SAUMA

   

A Pillowed Pledge to the Kalahari - 

At Kalahari Patterns, our designs are more than decor—they tell stories of heritage, place, and purpose. With our Mahogany Range, that story deepens into something even more meaningful: 100% of the profits from this collection are donated to SAUMA, the Stampriet Aquifer Uranium Mining Association, to support their mission of protecting the Kalahari Aquifer—the lifeblood of southern Namibia.


Why Water Matters

Beneath the sands of the Kalahari lies the Stampriet Transboundary Aquifer System (STAS)—an underground reservoir that provides clean water to communities, wildlife, and farms across Namibia, Botswana, and South Africa. This water source is precious, fragile, and under threat.

Unregulated mining practices, especially uranium leach mining, risk contaminating this vital aquifer. If we lose it, we don’t just lose water—we lose the future of the Kalahari and its people.


About SAUMA

SAUMA (Stampriet Aquifer Uranium Mining Association) is a Namibian nonprofit organization working to preserve and protect the Kalahari Aquifer. Their mission is to advocate for legislation, raise awareness, and prevent environmental damage caused by extractive industries.

  • By donating all profits from the Mahogany Range to SAUMA, we are investing in:
  • Clean water access for future generations
  • Responsible environmental policy
  • The protection of one of southern Africa’s most critical freshwater sources
