At just 16, Vihaan Kamath found a simple way to turn something he loved, baking cookies, into a mission to help children battling cancer. Inspired by his grandmother’s dedication to helping families in need, the Connecticut teenager began selling homemade chocolate chip and sugar cookies for charity. What started as a small effort has grown into a nonprofit that has now raised $66,331 and helped nearly 1,000 children, while Vihaan works to ensure his mission continues long after he leaves for college.
