Staying true to its commitment to the Overseas Filipino segment, Sun Life Philippines (Sun Life), the number one life insurance company in the country, joined the nation in celebrating Seafarers’ Day through festivities held recently at Robinson’s Galleria in Cebu.

Over 500 participants joined the event, including seafarers, maritime cadets, family members, and those deeply involved in the maritime community, including the biggest maritime organizations in Cebu such as MARINA, Seafarer Wives’ Association, various maritime schools and training centers, and manning agencies.
“It was a great honor for us to participate in this humble tribute to our seafarers,” says Cary Casipit, Sun Life Client Segment Marketing Head. “They sacrifice so much to secure their loved ones’ future and contribute to the country’s economy while at it. It is only fitting that we return the favor by helping them achieve their dreams and come home for good.”
