InLife Sheroes shone the spotlight on
women, led by Executive Chairperson and InLife Sheroes prime mover Nina D.
Aguas, and InLife Dreamweaver, Megastar Sharon Cuneta, in an afternoon program
that celebrated its achievements in the last five years.
Aside from Ms. Cuneta, other performers
included veteran actress, singer and comedienne Mitch Valdez, multitalented
performer Aryn Cristobal , Stand-up performer Nicki Morena. Versatile
comedienne KaladKaren hosted the event.
Ms. Aguas recalled how from a goal of
reaching one million Filipino women three years after its inception in 2019,
InLife Sheroes, now 5 years old, has reached more than 6.5 million Filipino
women through various on-ground and online activities.
“InLife Sheroes will reach out to more Filipino women so that
they become empowered through financial education and inclusion. This will be
done through various digital/online and on-the-ground initiatives nationwide
coupled with partnerships with various like-minded organizations.”
InLife
Sheroes, InLife’s flagship program for women empowerment, was established in
partnership with the International Finance Corporation, a member of
the World Bank Group. It aims to reach out to the relatively untapped segment
of the women in the Philippines, especially women entrepreneurs who need life
and health protection as well as financial solutions to expand their
businesses. InLife Sheroes’ four focus areas are financial literacy, health and
wellness, women-specific solutions, and access to social and business networks.
In order to exemplify these, InLife forged
strategic partnerships with like-minded organizations such as the Philippine
Business Coalition for Women Empowerment, the University of the Philippines –
Manila’s Mu Sigma Phi, I Can Serve Foundation, Imaginable Impact, For The Women
Foundation, Connected Women and major hospitals in the country among others,
aside from its bancassurance partner UnionBank of the Philippines, associate
Insular Health Care, and social commitment arm Insular Foundation, Inc.
Recently, InLife launched a critical
illness life insurance plan called Resilience Female Cancers, aimed at
providing coverage for women who would suffer from nine kinds
of cancers such as: breast, ovarian, cervical, and endometrial cancer; uterine
sarcomas, malignant mixed mullerian tumors, malignant germ cell tumors,
fallopian tube cancer and leiomyosarcomas.
Meanwhile, Ms. Cuneta, a Shero herself, launched a video
series on her YouTube channel, with the first episode discussing the importance
of choosing a healthier lifestyle and preparing for the financial impact of
health emergencies.
During the anniversary show held at the Rigodon Ballroom of
the Manila Peninsula on March 12, InLife also launched the InLife Sheroes
Awards. The Awards Program will honor Filipino women who embody the four
pillars of InLife Sheroes: champions of financial education, advocates for
physical and/or mental health and wellness, accomplished women who work for the
benefit of women and business leaders whose products and services address
women’s needs. Nominations should be accompanied by a 500-word write up on the nominee’s profile, explaining
her advocacies and endeavors, and must be sent to inlifesheroes@insular.com.ph from March 12 to August 15, 2024.
