Criacao Shinjuku: Cheering on matches and volunteering to clean up
As part of its efforts to achieve its purpose, the Sompo Group has signed a partnership agreement with Criacao Shinjuku. Based in Shinjuku (the same location as found in the Group’s head office), this soccer club seeks to contribute to the local community, thereby making it more symbiotic by combining the liveliness of Shinjuku and the power of sports.
A night game featuring Criacao Shinjuku took place at the Japan National Stadium on Friday, June 7, 2024, when the Sompo Chikyu (Earth) Club ran the event “Criacao Shinjuku Cheering & Cleanup Volunteering.” Our Group employees voluntarily attended the game as Criacao Shinjuku supporters from a corporate partner. After the game, about 130 employees of our Group companies participated in the volunteer activity organized by the Sompo Chikyu (Earth) Club to clean up the stadium. In addition, about 10 employees also participated in the home game administration volunteer work together on the same day. This provided our Group employees with the opportunity to increase their autonomy, spontaneity, and social connections.
In the future, we plan to expand these partnership-based initiatives to the entire Group to stimulate the activities of the Sompo Chikyu (Earth) Club and promote a greater sense of unity within the Group.

Selling bread baked at a welfare workshop
Members from a welfare workshop sell bread fresh from the oven in the Sompo Himawari Life Insurance Head Office Building once a month, which company employees purchase. “Welfare workshops” are employment support facilities for people with disabilities, where those mainly with intellectual disabilities engage in different types of work, thereby participating in their local communities.

Prime Assistance sponsored and participated in the distribution event of the mini-sized mimosa bouquets held at commercial facilities in Kagoshima City during International Women’s Day on March 8 to provide people in Kagoshima Prefecture with the opportunity to think about gender equality.
