Understanding Grief Therapy: A Deep Dive with Andrea Santiago | The Vibe With Ky Podcast October 8, 2023 Nyambe, 30, started a crowdfunding appeal in 2020 with the aim of building a school for the children of Mapapa - located 280 km (175 miles) north of Lusaka.

When Zambian teacher Dora Moono Nyambe started posting videos on TikTok three years ago, she had to ask her daughter's 13-year-old friend how to use the popular social media platform. I had no idea when I first started using TikTok - so I just started showing how life in the village was," Nyambe told Context via video call from the Zambian capital Lusaka. Nyambe said she has had to negotiate with villagers to allow their children to attend school, and has rescued many girls from child marriages - often having to reimburse the families for the cost spent on their weddings. Soon she began documenting her life on TikTok: creating videos of her cooking or dancing with her students, buying food for her children, and having conversations with them about issues from climate change to child marriage.

The former English teacher has faced online abuse, with some accusing her of "charity porn" and exploiting the students for personal gain. With her savings and her then five adopted children, Nyambe moved to Mapapa, bought a plot of land, and started teaching the village children under a tree in the hope that she would eventually be able to build a school. In three years, she has founded a charity called " Footprints of Hope" and built a school which has 350 children and 24 teachers. It has 12 classrooms, a kitchen, dining hall, dormitories and a science laboratory.Dora is the founder of our NGO, Footprints of Hope Mapapa. At just 27, Dora took her meager savings, moved to a remote village, built a mud house, and began teaching rural children underneath a tree. Three years later, she has saved over 200 children from abuse, forced marriage, rape, and neglect. Dora’s work as an advocate has garnered global attention, from the United Nations, UNICEF, and four million others on social media. Joseph Schmitt, an American researcher is the author of the book and shadowed Dora for a year to help tell her story. Under a Zambian Tree is officially available! Over the past year, Dora Moono Nyambe and Joseph Schmitt have been hard at work to bring you this incredible story.

Nyambe's videos now attract tens of thousands of views - even drawing the attention of U.S. popstar Meghan Trainor, who shared one of Nyambe's videos of the school dormitories set to Trainor's hit song "Made you look". As a teacher, as a human being, I felt I had to do something to bring education to these children," said Nyambe. Discovering ADHD Connections Around the Globe: We’re All in This Together | The Vibe With Ky Podcast October 8, 2023We are grateful for the opportunity to share Dora's inspiring story with the world, and we are thrilled by the response that we have received from readers across the country. Thank you to everyone who bought a book and supported us along the way! There is no way I would have been able to achieve what I have if it wasn't for all the TikTokers who have supported me," said Nyambe. A book titled " Under a Zambian Tree" documenting her journey was released on Feb. 7, with proceeds of the first 5,000 copies going towards her charity.
