Meet Olivia Zhang.
Olivia Zhang is a full-time student at Harvard University and the founder and CEO of Cancer Kids First, a global nonprofit she launched when she was just 14 years old. Inspired by the loss of her grandfather and elementary school teacher to cancer, Zhang turned her grief into action, creating a supportive, welcoming community for pediatric cancer patients and the young people who want to help them.
Today, Cancer Kids First is the world’s largest youth-led cancer nonprofit, with over 43,000 volunteers in 80 countries. Zhang also is a social media creator with more than 200,000 followers and a dynamic public speaker who has presented on the TEDx stage, at international health conferences and at over 50 high schools nationwide. She serves on nonprofit boards, mentors young changemakers and continues to prove that age is never a limit to impact.
Her honors include being named the youngest 2026 Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Impact Honoree, a 2025 L’Oréal Paris Women of Worth and a 2023 Diana Legacy Award recipient.
