SINGAPORE
- Media OutReach - 9
September 2020 – AIA Singapore
today announced that they will be offering complimentary AIA #ShareTheLove
Insurance plans[1]
covering COVID-19 and 21 infectious diseases (including dengue fever) for the essential
workforce.
The initiative will rally
together members of the community to protect this vulnerable group. Starting
today, members of the public may nominate a family member or friend[2] who is an essential worker
via Facebook or Instagram. Both parties in the selected stories (individuals
who submitted the story and their nominees) will be provided with the free AIA
#ShareTheLove Insurance, which covers infectious diseases, including COVID-19
and dengue fever, paying tribute to their service by protecting what matters.
“These
workers have put the communities’ needs above their own health and wellbeing. Aside
from COVID-19, the exposure to infectious diseases is not over even after ending
their work, as dengue cases continue to plague homes. By engaging the help of
the community at large, we hope to play a part in bringing more of these
amazing stories of resilience to light and paying tribute to our essential
workforce. This is a little gesture of appreciation for the sacrifices that
they have and continue to make as we deal with this crisis,” said Ms Melita Teo, Chief Customer and Digital
Officer, AIA Singapore.
This activity is part of a regional AIA
#ShareTheLove movement taking place across Asia. It is during these challenging
times that we realise the positive impact that love can bring. Be it for
ourselves, our family, or the community, a little sharing of love goes a long
way. In Singapore, besides offering 2,000 complimentary AIA
#ShareTheLove Insurance plans as part of its efforts of paying tribute
to essential workers, AIA Singapore will also be raising funds for AIA
Singapore’s two adopted charities, Children’s Wishing Well and the VIVA
Foundation.
AIA Singapore has long played an important role
in progressing education, wellness and enrichment programmes for children and
youths from its adopted charity, Children’s Wishing Well, supporting the cause
for the third year. With corporate social responsibility continuing to be a key
priority, even amidst a crisis, the life insurer today also announced an
expansion of its giving commitment by partnering with a new beneficiary, the
VIVA Foundation, to do more to urgently narrow Singapore’s protection gap by
raising funds for paediatric cancer research.
