Most
breadwinners play a big role in providing the income that their family needs to
live. Not only do they bring “bread to the table” but are also responsible for providing
emotional support to their loved ones during difficult times.

Such
is the role of Liz Dianne Malanguis, a Sun
Life Grepa client.
Being a single mother with four children,
she cares for her family’s daily needs and also worries about their financial
future.

“It’s
not easy being the breadwinner of a family. I always had this fear in me
that should something happen to me, I might not be able to support my
family anymore, especially my kids,” Liz said. “That is why, I
thought of options or back-up plans. It just so happened that one of my
friends is a Sun Life Grepa advisor and she introduced life insurance to me. At
first, I had my doubts since life insurance initially seemed like an additional
expense, but I eventually believed in her wisdom and the options she gave me
really addressed my financial needs and budget.”

While
the sincerity and credibility of her Sun Life Grepa Financial Advisor provided
the necessary push for Liz to avail of life insurance, Liz also recognizes how
Sun Life Grepa has been a reliable partner to her over the years.

“I
saw the dedication of the organization to fulfill my needs as a client and I am satisfied,” Liz said. “When I
got my policy in 2020, it never crossed my mind that I would eventually be
diagnosed with breast cancer. When I was diagnosed, I
immediately worried about how I can raise money for my hospital bills.
Fortunately, I have my Sun Life Grepa insurance which has helped
me pay my medical expenses,” Liz added. “I am so glad I prepared
for such emergencies ahead.”

Liz
also gives advice to others on financial preparation. “It is important for
everyone to have life insurance. Even just one policy will truly be helpful to
you. Life insurance became my safety net and has
given me the peace of mind and comfort that I need. For me, it is
not an additional expense but a way to financially protect myself
and my loved ones as the future is always uncertain.”

Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc.

There’s something about fathers that inspires awe and wonder. They are usually their children’s first hero, first love, silent defender, and indulgent spoiler. From childhood to adulthood, their endearing (and sometimes exasperating) qualities have shaped how their children look at themselves and the world.

This Father’s Day (June 16), take the time to really make your father feel loved, recognized, and appreciated. This could often be a challenge because fathers come in so many shapes and sizes. Some are the quiet type and shy away from attention, some are grumpy or temperamental, some are outgoing and expressive, some work so hard they turn days into nights, some are sporty, while some are just happy to veg out in front of the TV.

No matter, here are some tips to make Father’s Day extra special for the family’s superhero:

For the foodie dad: Surprise him with lunch or dinner in his favorite restaurant. Try out a new place that serves his favorite cuisine or dish. If he enjoys cooking, get him a kitchen gadget or appliance that will elevate his cooking even more. For brew masters or coffee lovers, nothing beats driving up to old haunts or new finds for a glass (or two) of craft beer or freshly brewed coffee.
For the stylish dad: Branded or not, formal or casual, your dad always looks dapper in whatever he chooses to wear. Why not take him out shopping and then surprise him with a special Father’s Day treat? A branded pair of shoes he has mentioned quite a few times, a classic watch, a pair of jeans and shirts that will make him look groovier and younger. There’s nothing like seeing your father’s face when you hand him your gift. Perhaps because he is so unbelievably touched the child he once carried can now afford to give him gifts.
For the music-loving dad: Take him to a vinyl store so he can pore over to his heart’s content all the music albums of his youth. If budget’s not an issue, get him a turntable as well so he can enjoy listening to the first batch of his vinyl collection. Or simply get him a new Bluetooth speaker or earbuds so he can listen to his playlist anytime.
For the sporty/adventurous dad: Join him in a round of golf, play pickleball together, go camping or biking with him, join him test-drive a car he has been eyeing, or better yet, surprise him with a local or overseas trip.
For the techie dad: If he loves to tinker with gadgets, it may just be the time to upgrade his phone, tablet or laptop. You can also get him a TV stick or smart TV so he can watch movies, documentaries, or sports games.

Yet regardless of what your father is like, giving them the gift of health will always be a good idea. Parents in their pink of health are a family’s wealth. What better way to celebrate than to accompany your dad in his regular medical check-ups or in his first annual physical check-up in a long time. As a practical gift to your ever-pragmatic dad, get him a Sun Grepa Senior Care offered by Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc., a major life insurance company in the country. Sun Grepa Senior Care addresses the life and health protection needs of senior adults by providing financial security for medical issues that may happen. Your dad will gain security and peace of mind as it protects his hard-earned savings so he can continue enjoying his senior years without any worries.

Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc. (Sun Life Grepa), a major life insurance company in the Philippines, recently conducted a medical and dental mission aimed at providing healthcare services to the members of Ahon sa Hirap, Inc. (ASHI). The event saw the participation of 500 individuals from Pililia, Rizal who received vital medical attention and support.

Ahon sa Hirap, Inc., an organization dedicated to uplifting underprivileged communities, welcomed the initiative as a much-needed resource for its members. The medical mission included various healthcare services such as consultations, dental check-ups, and medication distribution, addressing the immediate health needs of those in attendance.

Furthermore, this medical mission was conducted in collaboration with A.Y. Foundation (AYF), the corporate social responsibility arm of the Yuchengco Group of Companies, Stronghold Insurance and Harley Davidson Owners Group-Manila (HOG-Manila). AYF supplied the medical and dental supplies utilized by the volunteer doctors and dentists, while Stronghold Insurance provided meals for both attendees and volunteers. Additionally, HOG-Manila played a vital role by contributing additional volunteer doctors, dentists, and nurses.

“At Sun Life Grepa, we believe in the importance of giving back to the community and making a positive impact on the lives of others. Through initiatives like this medical mission, we are able to extend our support to those in need and help build healthier, more resilient communities,” Sun Life Grepa Vice President for Group Marketing Operations Peter Miranda said. “We are also grateful to the volunteer doctors, dentists and nurses who generously gave their time to provide medical care to ASHI members.”

This marks Sun Life Grepa’s continued commitment to serving the members of ASHI as it is not the first time the company has conducted such a medical and dental mission. The first time was in Dasmarinas, Cavite, the second time was in Mauban Quezon and the third time was in San Jose, Antique.

Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc. (Sun Life Grepa), a joint venture between Sun Life Philippines and Yuchengco Group of Companies, posted a 17% increase in total premium income (TPI) from Php 11.5 billion in 2022 to Php 13.5 billion in 2023. According to the Insurance Commission, Sun Life Grepa ranked 10th when it comes to total premium income and net income of Life Insurance companies as of December 31, 2023.

“There have been challenges in the current landscape but the premium income growth indicates that Filipinos are on a steady path to understanding how achieving financial security is important in planning the future. There is still much room for the market to truly find value in securing the future not just for themselves but more so for their loved ones and we are in a position to meet that demand when the market matures further,” Sun Life Grepa President Richard S. Lim says, expressing optimism.

The company was able to insure over 3 million lives in 2023 and is set to mark 2024 with 70 years in service.

“As we celebrate our 70^th year, we would like to affirm our commitment to help Filipinos achieve lifetime financial security and live healthier lives. We are positive that things will continue to get better from here. We believe that increasing awareness and conducting stronger information campaign about financial preparedness and accessibility of financial solutions will surely aid the consistent growth not just of our company but also of the industry in the coming years,” Lim declares.

Apart from its upcoming 70^th anniversary, there is another reason for Sun Life Grepa to celebrate as the company has been recertified as Great Place to Work (GPTW) for November 2023 to November 2024. It was first recognized as GPTW in November 2022.

We hope that they will continue to feel valued as well,” Lim states, paying tribute to the employees of Sun Life Grepa.
