THE CHAIRMAN As we celebrate 120 years of helping AND PRESIDENT Filipinos achieve lifetime financial security, it is but fitting to also honor the culture of generosity that has been nurtured within our organization. Since our business is founded on taking care of another person’s future, Sun Lifers are naturally attuned to acts of service. And its brightest manifestation is the Sun Life Foundation – where its four pillars of arts and culture, education, health, and environment embody the values that we collectively uphold. Such is the inspiration behind a menu of volunteer activities called “120 Rays of Giving Back,” which rallied both employees and advisors to donate their time and resources to their chosen advocacies. Complemented by the Foundation’s sustainable projects, this nationwide volunteerism drive made our milestone year even more significant. Sun Life Foundation 5 Because for a company to reach more than a century of doing business in a country, it needs to grow its own roots and a sense of being home. Sun Life is home in the Philippines, and we want to continue giving back to communities and families who are most in need. To our partners, thank you for the trust and friendship that you have given us.

  • On My Honor: Stories of Scouts in Action
    On My Honor: Stories of Scouts in Action Some heroes act in the daily round of existing, others act at the moment. This is a book about heroes who were and who are members of the great Movement known as Scouting. Some of them received official recognition for their acts, some did not. On My Honor: Stories of Scouts in Action narrates stories of Scouts and Scouters who have displayed heroism in the service of fellow human beings. It is a landmark work in the history of BSP publishing. Special thanks to Bong Saculles for creating a digitized copy of this book for the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. All Rights Reserved. No part of this book may be reproduced in any form without permission in writing from the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. To all the Scouts. 1 FOREWORD It is fitting that we remember the past. It is practical that we move with the times. It is important that we serve the youth of today. It is necessary that we face present realities. No monument ever suffices to honor acts of heroism. Imitation is the best praise. So the best tribute which can be rendered to people who have performed heroic acts is to publicize the deed in order that an example can be set before others to inspire them to do likewise. On My Honor: Stories of Scouts in Action narrates stories of Scouts and Scouters who have displayed heroism in the service of fellow human beings. It is a landmark work in the history of BSP publishing.
