About Kenny Kane

Kenny’s journey into cancer advocacy began when his father was diagnosed with stage 2B testicular cancer while Kenny was still in high school. That experience catalyzed his path from nonprofit operations into national advocacy, ultimately leading him to serve as CEO of the Testicular Cancer Foundation. He is also the author of two books: The Accidental Nonprofiteer: Building Systems That Serve Your Mission (Not the Other Way Around) (August 2025) and Mission‑Driven Ecommerce: What Building a Store Taught Me About Systems, Community, and Becoming an Operator (October 2025). His writing reflects his more than 15 years of experience building mission-driven organizations across nonprofit, tech, and real estate sectors, and aims to help leaders design systems that scale impact rather than stifle it.
