Borsheims: Building Community Above All

Omaha-based Borsheims Fine Jewelry & Gifts, in its commitment to corporate responsibility, has partnered with Leo Schachter’s Kalahari Dream Diamond in the hopes of bettering the areas in which the diamond industry does business. The Kalahari Dream Diamond was curated with the goal of giving back to the lands and communities that so generously provide these beautiful stones.

Borsheims has committed to funding the creation of a direct, consistent, and sustainable water delivery system to the drought-impacted Malwelwe and Ngware villages through a set sales goal from their Kalahari Dream Diamonds. The project involves setting up a new pump at a booster station of the national water carrier, while also installing a new pipeline connecting the booster station to the villages, allowing quick and direct access to a larger water supply.

As of today, Borsheims is proud to report that it has reached over 90% of the sales goal towards funding this project and will likely attain the remaining funds in the next few months.

Borsheims’ commitment to do good does not just end when its goal for Malwelwe and Ngware is reached. In a continued effort to give back to the African continent, Borsheims also supports the Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary, whose mission is to rescue, heal, and provide a secure environment for orphaned rhinos where they can grow, roam free, and breed in an effort to ensure these beautiful creatures will always remain in Africa.

Inspired by the volunteer sanctuary work of Borsheims diamond buyer Heather Ingraham, the Rhino Pendant is set in 18K white, yellow, or rose gold and features a 0.10ct rough Kalahari Dream Diamond mined in Botswana. Due to the nature of rough diamonds, each rhino pendant is unique and one-of–a kind. But what makes the pendants truly special is the impact they make, with a percentage of proceeds from all sales going directly to the Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary.
