Namdia helps to transform lives
Supports Nampharm’s cleft
palette reconstitution programme
Namib Desert Diamonds (Namdia) has donated N$250 000 to the Nampharm Foundation in support of their cleft palette reconstitution programme for children.
The official handover took place on 27 February.
Since its founding in 2019, the Namdia Foundation, the organisation's corporate social responsibility (CSR) arm, has offered a ray of hope, emphasising sport, health and education.
Its goal is to improve underprivileged areas in Namibia, and it has made significant progress in helping kids who have cleft lip palates, a birth abnormality that impairs speech and feeding and affects a child's quality of life.
The Namdia Foundation has partnered with the Nampharm Foundation, whose cleft palate reconstruction programme aims to restore hope and confidence in affected children.
In 2022, the Namdia Foundation donated N$250 000, enabling the successful reconstruction surgeries of 10 children.
The most recent N$250 000 donation ensures that another 10 children will undergo this life-changing procedure in 2024.

Uahoroka Kauta, COO of Namdia and a trustee of the Namdia Foundation, emphasised their commitment to building the Namibian House brick by brick, leaving no one behind.
“When the call came, we didn’t waver to help out,” he said.
He highlighted that their support extends beyond medical assistance, aiming to alleviate challenges and offer brighter futures.
Testimonies from parents like the mother of Alex Krambona, a recipient of the surgery, expressed deep gratitude.
She said organisations like Nampharm and Namdia have offered her hope.
"Thanks to the Nampharm Foundation and its stakeholders, my son will live a healthy, happy life," she said.
Carol Musarurwa, manager and trustee of the Nampharm Foundation, thanked the Namdia Foundation for their impactful partnership.
“The donation has changed the lives of children who would otherwise not have received help,” she said.
Medical procedures take place weekly at a local private hospital, with some children requiring more than one surgery, depending on the severity of the condition.
