In Memoriam of Dakota Stormer

We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our Founder and CEO Dakota Stormer. After two brave months of fighting stage IV lung cancer, Dakota passed during the early hours of September 4th.

Footprint lost a passionate, empathetic, and courageous leader who continuously inspired and encouraged those around him. For those of us fortunate enough to work alongside Dakota, we’ve lost not only an amazing mentor and colleague, but a beautiful friend.

Though we are deeply saddened, we are touched by the outpouring of love for Dakota and support of Footprint. Dakota dedicated his life’s work to advocating for the betterment of the planet, to extending kindness to all humans, and to bringing communities together to solve hard, complex issues. Though Footprint will be a different place without Dakota, we know his kind and mighty spirit will be the foundation from which we continue to build, grow, and advance the company.

Dakota’s family has arranged a series of events to celebrate his life. These are open to the public and will be held in person and streamed virtually.

The family has asked that in lieu of flowers, donations be made in his honor.

All gifts are non-charitable donations and not considered investments.
