Yollanda Chimbarami, a Zimbabwean trailblazer based in Canada, is on the verge of making national history. Already reigning as Miss Supranational Zimbabwe, she is vying for the Miss World Zimbabwe crown today. If successful, she will become the first to hold both elite titles in the same year.
Chimbarami, who first gained attention at just 16 as the youngest Miss Zimbabwe finalist, is also a celebrated actress. She has appeared in the hit movie Breakthrough and voiced roles in Supa Strikas.
Beyond her artistic achievements, she is a dedicated humanitarian. As the co-founder of Help A Child Save A Nation (HACSAN), alongside former Zimbabwe cricketer Bryan Zhawi, she has championed initiatives like the ‘A Million Kids to School’ campaign, aiming to transform education for underprivileged children.
From pageantry to philanthropy, Chimbarami continues to inspire on every stage she graces.
