Conservation
Sand Preservation
Sand is coarse, rough, and it gets everywhere — and that is exactly why it is sacred. We protect the dunes from strip-mining, podracing, and reckless landspeeder traffic.
A nonprofit for the people of the dunes
Protecting sand, suns, and sacred ways of Tatooine.
For generations, the settlers have drained our water, fenced our dunes, and forgotten the old songs. The Tusken Raider Foundation exists to preserve the desert, defend our people, and pass the sacred ways to the next of kin.
Trusted by 14 clans across the Jundland Wastes and the Dune Sea.

The desert is not empty. It is home.
The Tusken Raider Foundation is a registered nonprofit organization committed to the stewardship of Tatooine's most precious resource: its endless, glorious sand. Where outsiders see wasteland, we see a living cathedral of dune and wind.
Through education, conservation, and community defense, we work to ensure that the howl of the gaderffii is heard for a thousand more generations. Your support keeps the banthas fed, the vaporators honest, and the Skywalkers watched.
Our Programs
Four sacred duties. One tireless people.
Every donation is stewarded across the initiatives that keep our way of life alive beneath the twin suns.
Community Defense
Anti-Skywalker Vigilance
Know your enemy. Anakin Skywalker is a documented menace to peaceful dune communities. Our watch programs train young Raiders to recognize the threat before the sun sets.
Animal Welfare
Bantha Companion Care
A Raider is only as strong as their bantha. We fund fodder drives, wool grooming, and lifelong bonds between rider and beast across the Dune Sea.
Sustainability
Moisture Reclamation
Water is life, and the settlers have taken more than their share. Our reclamation initiative gently redistributes moisture back to the people who honor it.
Voices of the Dunes
Every growl tells a story worth saving.
RRUH RRUH URRHHH!
“Sand is patient. Sand is kind. Sand endures long after the settlers and their machines are dust. The Foundation taught my clan to listen to it again.”

“They said the vaporators were theirs. The Foundation reminded us that the water was always the desert's. Now my banthas drink freely.”
