Ito ang Araw Mo campaign can help you restart your financial journey. Renew your commitment to a better future.

“The times we are in may have pushed Millennials to put their goals on hold, but it also brought out their creativity, resourcefulness, and undeniable spirit. They are well equipped to fulfill all their dreams, even as they navigate their way in a new environment. It all begins with recognizing the start of this new chapter in their lives, taking control of what they can accomplish today, while working on their bigger goals in the future with Sun Life as their partner. There may have been a tremendous shift in our lives, but Millennials have the power to realize their goals and aspirations. It can start today. Ito ang araw nila, and it would be Sun Life’s honor to be their partner for life in this journey.” ~Gilbert Simpao, Sun Life Chief Marketing and Client Experience Officer

In the light of all our worries in the past year,  resilience played a major part in letting us learn how to reset and revisit what we have done best, and can do better.

SUN Talks: RISE TOGETHER to a Bright New World

 

Sun Life of Canada (Philippines), Inc. (“Sun Life”) is enjoining Filipinos to begin their journey to recovery with a campaign dubbed “Rise Together to a Bright New World.”

 

As we all know the COVID situation has impacted so many aspects of our lives, it's a bit normal as a regular Filipino to be feeling overwhelmed, concern, and anxious about the situation. 

 

 

The campaign was launched as part of Sun Life’s annual commemoration of Financial Independence Month every June. It features initiatives ranging from online financial literacy sessions to digital tools, all of which aim to empower Filipinos to get back on track in their financial goals, as well as their health and wellness aspirations.  

 

 

 

“Rise Together to a Bright New World” is rooted in an online survey conducted by Sun Life among its clients from May 11 to 29, 2020 to know how the pandemic has affected them, and so the company could respond to their needs appropriately. Results showed that their top concerns were the physical health of their family (71%), the health of the economy (71%), their children's education (69%), providing support for an elderly member of the family (61%), and the ability to save for the future (63%).

 

 

Asked about what negative impact the pandemic has had on their lives, the respondents shared that it affected their financial situation (48%), the ability to socialize with friends (44%), and getting enough physical ability (31%).

 







 

But while 63% of the respondents expressed concern about the current situation, 68% remained hopeful about the future. In a separate survey, 62% are putting in place recovery plans with 68% saying that they will start saving more and building their emergency fund, 57% looking for more financial advice, and 53% investing in family’s health.

Meanwhile, health and wellness took center stage in the webinars with Dr. Anne Louise Gabriel-Chan of Chinese General Hospital and Medical Center, Dr. Candy Drilon-Dalman of Centro Holistico, Life and Corporate Coach Kimi Lu, and Sun Life Health and Accident Head Lirio Ang-Torres.

 

 

Meanwhile, Sun Life Brand Ambassadors Piolo Pascual, Matteo Guidicelli, Enchong Dee, and Inigo Pascual were featured in Facebook Live events, where they shared about learnings amid the pandemic as they faced issues specific to their respective life stages.

These talks, along with other relevant content and tools, are available in a hub called STORES or Sun Talks Online Resource at www.sunlife.com.ph. 

 

The learning will continue in the Sun Talks Virtual Conference happening on June 27, 2020 starting at 10am. The whole day virtual gathering will tackle money matters and health and wellness, and will also have sessions specifically for business owners and overseas Filipinos. It features a prominent lineup of speakers, including Business Speaker and Consultant Francis Kong, Wealth Coach Chinkee Tan, Strength and Conditioning Specialist Chappy Callanta, Personal Development & Wellbeing Coach Avril Rodriguez, Nurture Wellness Village Founder Cathy Turvill, Department of Trade and Industry Director Jerry Clavesillas, Stephane Sanchez of CX Advisory, Professor Eric Soriano, entrepreneur RJ Ledesma, Economics professor Dr. Alvin Ang, overseas Filipino and financial literacy advocate Pablo Santos.
