[Hong Kong] 19 December 2025 – Sun Life Hong Kong Limited ("Sun Life") today proudly marked its third consecutive year as title sponsor of fundraising events organized by Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centre (“Maggie’s Centre”). This year, Maggie’s Carol Concert brought hope and warmth to cancer patients and their families through uplifting festive music, while raising funds for the Centre.

Sun Life raised its sponsorship to HK$600,000 this year. Combined with proceeds from the evening’s charity auction and online fundraising campaign, over HK$2.2 million was raised. These contributions will play a vital role in supporting Maggie’s Centre’s services for cancer patients and their families, ensuring they receive physical and mental support throughout the journey fighting against cancer.

The donation raised will be used to support the essential services provided by Maggie’s Centre:

  • Fund 1,000 dietitian consultations or dietary workshops to help cancer patients improve their diet and manage side effects during treatment;
  •  Support 1,500 oncology nurses or social workers consultations without time limit, along with the provision of free supplies such as wigs, breast prostheses, and nutritional milk to ease the financial burdens on patients;
  • Enable 10,000 patients or their families to participate in mind-body wellness workshops designed to help manage their physical and mental health while building mutual support networks.

Christine Yeung, Deputy CEO, Life and Health of Sun Life Hong Kong Limited, said: "Sun Life has long been committed to providing lifelong financial protection and to empowering our Clients to lead healthier lives, with the goal of creating greater value for society. We are honored to once again serve as the title sponsor of this meaningful event and are deeply grateful for the generous support from the community.”

Christine continued: “Thanks to our collective efforts and the generosity of so many, we successfully raised a substantial sum for the Centre this year. These funds will enable the Centre to continue delivering comprehensive care and mental support to cancer patients and their families, entirely free of charge. We’ve also expanded the scope of services to offer more holistic support across a broader range of needs. At Sun Life, we truly believe in promoting physical and mental well-being in the community, and are proud to extend our care beyond traditional insurance, offering support to those who need it most.”

Over the past three years, Sun Life has partnered with the Centre, sponsoring various events, to raise nearly HK$5 million.

“We are beyond grateful for each guest and every contribution tonight,” said Catherine Suen, General Manager at Maggie’s Centre. “Our community has once again shown what is possible when people come together with love and purpose.”

As one of Hong Kong’s long-established companies, Sun Life has consistently contributed to the community. The company collaborates with various organizations to create positive impact across four areas: health & mental health, disease prevention, community diversity, equity and inclusion, and financial literacy.
