On October 12, 2024, the Life Underwriters Association of the Philippines (LUAP) and the Insurance Commission (IC) is set to host the biggest gathering of life insurance companies and the general public through its LIFEST: InsuRUNce 2024, a night run that will be held at Bridgetowne Destination Estate in Pasig City.
Held in its second year, LUAP Insurance Festival or LIFEST is being held to commemorate the Life Insurance Consciousness Week, per Proclamation No. 1059, which declares the first week of October for the said observance.
“We recognize the importance of the general public being able to be aware of the benefits of life insurance, which is the main reason why we have partnered with LUAP for this activity this year,” said Atty. Reynaldo A. Regalado, Insurance Commissioner. “We believe that LUAP, together with us at the Insurance Commission, have the leverage and influence to gather and unify life insurance companies in a significant activity such as this one.”
The LIFEST: InsuRUNce 2024 is a night run that includes three categories: pet run, kiddie run, and a regular fun run for running enthusiasts. Each category will be inclusive of a race shirt, race bib, and goodie bag. For the 3Km, 5Km, and 10Km run, additional glow sticks and neon socks will be provided. Pet and kiddie run will only cover 1Km. The run is open to the public via RaceYa: https://register.raceya.fit/event/lifest-2024.
Awards and prizes will be provided for the 1Km Kiddie Run, 3Km, 5Km, and 10Km categories: Medals for top 3 male and female and a Top Senior runner for the 10Km category. For the 1Km Pet Run, the awards that will be provided will be: Best Dressed Award, Most Glamorous Dog, and Best Instagram Post.
“As an association composed of life insurance companies in the country, we at LUAP have seen collaboration beyond company colors. LUAP Insurance Festival or LIFEST is a testament of our commitment to foster camaraderie among financial advisors no matter what their company colors are,” said Nonna Medina, 2024 LUAP National President. “For the second year, we want financial advisors to take a breather, have fun, and celebrate life.”
