ZLC is proud to celebrate Partner and Wealth Advisor Mike Buytels, who has been named British Columbia’s Visionary of the Year by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada. Through the 2026 Visionaries of the Year campaign, Mike raised an outstanding $129,011 in support of Canadians affected by blood cancers.

Over ten inspiring weeks, this year’s 31 candidates raised a combined $1,156,860 to help fund life-saving research, trusted support programs, and advocacy for patients and families across Canada. While fundraising totals tell part of the story, the true impact of this campaign lies in the hope it creates. Congratulations, Mike, on this well-deserved recognition and thank you to everyone who supported this meaningful cause.
