YOUth: The Young Person's Guide to Starting a Nonprofit

Young people are driving social change like never before, but many passionate activists lack the roadmap to turn their ideas into sustainable organizations. Olivia Zhang, who founded Cancer Kids First at age fourteen after losing two loved ones to cancer, delivers the comprehensive nonprofit guide she wishes she'd had when first starting out.

Now a Harvard student and recipient of the Diana Legacy Award, Zhang shares her journey of growing Cancer Kids First to reach over 10,000 patients across twenty-two countries.

Listeners will get from Zhang the following:

• Step-by-step instructions on legal filing, branding, team-building, and fundraising • Practical tools and actionable exercises • Proven strategies from Zhang's journey of scaling Cancer Kids First to twenty-two countries

Drawing from her viral Google Doc guide that garnered more than 400,000 views, Zhang transforms trial-and-error lessons into an actionable blueprint, covering startup essentials, growth strategies, and authentic leadership challenges unique to young founders. For every passionate young person who believes they can and should change the world, YOUth is the ultimate resource to make it happen.
