Sun Life seeks financial freedom fighters

MANILA, Philippines - Sun Life Foundation once again puts the spotlight on financial success stories in the 2nd It’s Time! Awards. The awards are a testament to the ingenuity and courage of Filipinos, who have empowered others to take the journey towards financial freedom.

Money makes the world go round, but it takes sound financial planning to secure the future. Because inspired action always triumph over adversity, no matter the odds.

Such achievements must be recognized and celebrated.

Last year’s roster of winners showed Wealth Wonder and Grand It’s Time! Award Winner Jed Dayang Jr. helped protect his dreams and overseas Filipinos in South Korea with money management sessions. Investment Savvy Star Edmund Lao is a financial-literacy-advocate-at-heart who learned the fine art of prosperity.

Knowing how to save allowed Romeo Francisco to break through the shackles of poverty, winning him the Retirement Champion plum. Entrepreneur Esperanza Uy used financial sensibilities to provide for her family, earning her the Family Icon title.
