Manulife Vietnam has won the top prize for ‘Best CSR Insurance Company Vietnam’ at the 2021 International Business Magazine Awards.

The company has been raising awareness and encouraging healthy living in the market for over 20 years, advocating active and healthy living through its long sponsorship of the Manulife Danang International Marathon and Terry Fox Run, and being a leading provider of health-focused products.

The global insurer has also been innovating in the health space with the free-to-use ManulifeMOVE – a digital health and wellness platform that integrates activity-tracking and motivates healthy habits with users.

The platform was recently used as part of the MOVE for Vietnam Challenge, an online CSR campaign that inspired ManulifeMOVE users to raise funds for COVID-19 frontline workers by simply getting active.

Close to VNĐ3.5 billion (US$151,696) worth of essential medical supplies have been gifted by Manulife Vietnam since the onset of the pandemic.

Its chief marketing officer, Marilyn Wang, said: “It’s an honour to be recognised with this award and we are proud of the support we have received from the community through their participation in the MOVE for Vietnam Challenge. Together we are able to build stronger, healthier communities in Việt Nam."

This year Manulife will continue to sponsor the Danang International Marathon to take place from August 6 to 8. — VNS
