December 31st 2024.
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Dora Moono Nyambe, a well-known humanitarian and TikTok sensation. She was only 32 years old, and her unexpected departure has left us all in shock and grief. The devastating announcement was made on December 27th through an emotional post on Instagram. While the cause of her death is still unknown, the message expressed that Dora will be remembered as a beloved mother, a hero, a peace philanthropist, and an extraordinary woman.
Dora had a massive following of over 4 million on TikTok, where she shared her journey as a humanitarian and educator in Zambia. Her inspiring work touched the hearts of many, and she was recognized by Daily Mail for launching her own nonprofit organization, Footprints of Hope School, in 2019. In one of her videos on October 10th, Dora shared that she initially came to Mapapa Village, her friend's hometown, while waiting for her visa to be approved. But as she observed the living conditions of the children in the village, she made a life-changing decision to stay and build a school to provide them with better opportunities. "When I arrived here, I saw so many children being sexually assaulted, many had babies, and there were just a lot of terrible things happening," she said.
Her efforts did not go unnoticed, and soon, her school became a safe haven for hundreds of children in the village. With the overwhelming response from the community, Dora went on to build four more schools, accommodating over 500 students in total. She was an inspiration to many, and her TikTok account, @doramoononyambe, was a testament to her dedication and love for the children.
In a follow-up video, Dora, who did not have any biological children, revealed that she had adopted the younger kids in the village, while the older ones had moved on and were able to sustain themselves. Despite the lack of resources and government funding, Dora refused to turn away any child in need. "I can't operate like that," she said, determined to make a difference in their lives.
Before her passing, Dora was raising funds for a new bus to replace the old one gifted to the school. The bus played a crucial role in picking up children from different villages and transporting food and supplies for the teachers and staff. However, due to its frequent breakdowns, it became challenging to keep the school running smoothly. A GoFundMe page was set up for the bus, and as of now, $47,545 has been raised out of the $80,000 goal.
In a heart-wrenching video posted on TikTok, a fellow teacher from Dora's nonprofit organization announced her death. "I am deeply saddened to announce the loss of my dear CEO, director, manager, and founder of Footprints of Hope School. She passed away on Wednesday, December 25th, 2024," she said.
The burial services for this social media personality were scheduled for Monday, December 30th, at 12:00 p.m. at Footprints of Hope, Mapapa Village, in Mukushi, Zambia. The organization also provided contact information for a family representative and school administrator on Instagram, for those who wished to show their support.
The world has lost an extraordinary soul, but Dora's legacy will continue to live on through the lives she touched and the hearts she inspired. Rest in peace, Dora Moono Nyambe.
