Bridging the Gap: A Bold New Path to Health and Wealth

Earlier this year, Sun Life announced the launch of our Bridges Initiative – a bold effort to close gaps and create paths to better health and wealth for underserved communities. 

Through Bridges, we’re working to address the needs of underserved groups1 in three key ways: 

Products and service innovation

Accelerating the development of tailored solutions and enhancements for underserved groups, leveraging data and insights. 

Philanthropy

By 2030, Sun Life plans to donate $75M to causes that support underserved groups. 

Advocacy and thought leadership

Promoting a more inclusive industry and producing research to understand the unique needs of underserved groups. 

1This includes individuals living with chronic health conditions, low-income families, and groups who have historically been excluded from accessing the solutions they need. 

Check out our Bridges video below, which captures the heart of our initiative.
