This essential guidebook—created by the founder of Cancer Kids First, the world’s largest youth-led cancer nonprofit—gives young changemakers the exact blueprint they need to turn big ideas into real-world impact.

In this guide, Olivia Zhang, who launched Cancer Kids First at age fourteen after losing two loved ones to cancer, delivers the comprehensive nonprofit playbook she wishes she’d had when first starting out. Now a student at Harvard University and a recent inductee into the Forbes 30 Under 30 list for Social Impact (she was the youngest honoree in her category in 2025), Zhang shares her journey of scaling a youth-led charity to reach over 10,000 patients across twenty-two countries.

Drawing from her viral Google Docs guide—which garnered more than 400,000 views—Zhang transforms trial-and-error lessons into an actionable blueprint, covering startup essentials, growth strategies, and the authentic leadership challenges unique to young founders. Whether you’re in high school or college, for every passionate young person who believes they can (and should) change the world—YOUth is the ultimate resource to make it happen.
