MANILA, PH – September 2026 – Sun Life Philippines is putting the spotlight on Filipino business owners. The country’s No. 1 life insurer in terms of total premium income highlights their compassion and perseverance. These qualities have empowered them to overcome obstacles and continue pursuing their goals.
Sun Life continues its “Stories to Live Bright Now” series. This time, it has released two new videos entitled “Alaga” and “Pag-asa.”
In “Alaga,” viewers meet Marc Cacho. He runs Milagros, an elderly caregiving facility dedicated to compassionate care for senior citizens. Caregivers also need protection and support. Therefore, Marc ensured that Sun Life covered members of his team. This decision proved invaluable when one employee faced a serious health challenge and mounting medical expenses. As a result, the coverage provided much-needed financial assistance during a difficult time.
Meanwhile, “Pag-asa” tells the story of Lucy Sanchez. She is an overseas Filipino worker who dreamed of reuniting permanently with her family in the Philippines. Determined to secure their future together, Lucy returned home. She focused on growing a family business with her husband. Through hard work and guidance from their Sun Life advisor, the couple made the most of the resources they had built over the years. In the end, they turned their aspirations into reality.
“Business owners carry more than their own dreams. They also carry the hopes of their families, employees, and communities,” said Carla Gonzalez-Chong, Chief Client Experience and Marketing Officer of Sun Life Philippines. “Through ‘Stories to Live Bright Now,’ we hope to inspire Filipino business owners with real stories. These stories show that a brighter future is within reach. It takes the right support and a willingness to take meaningful steps forward.”
The series is now showing on Sun Life’s official Facebook page. It forms part of the Live Bright Now campaign. The campaign encourages Filipinos to take small but meaningful steps towards achieving their goals.
