Blood Cancer United โ Light The Night Walk & Fundraising
Location: Henry Maier Festival Park
Our lead advisor, Bryan Jansen, proudly serves on the Board of Trustees and as Chairperson for the Visionaries of the Year campaign. A cancer survivor himself, Bryan was honored as Man of the Year in 2019, and his personal journey continues to fuel his commitment to giving back. He has set a lifetime goal of raising $1 million to support the life-saving research that made his recovery possible โ and today, he's over halfway to that goal.
In 2025, our Gateway Associates team came together for our 9th annual Light The Night Walk, raising nearly $44,000 alongside our amazing community.
This year marks our 10th annual Light The Night Walk โ and it's a milestone year for Bryan too, marking over a decade cancer-free.
๐ฆธ Bryan is leading the fundraising charge as Chair of the Executive Challenge, going head-to-head with 20 other executive leaders across the greater Milwaukee area โ all competing for one goal: raising as much as possible in the fight against blood cancer. Bryan's personal target is $50,000, and right now, every gift is matched, turning your generosity into even greater impact.
