As we reflect on last year, we’re incredibly proud of the impact our team made beyond the workplace. Together, our team members reported more than 19,000 hours of volunteer time, supporting over 200 charities and causes that matter in our communities. This generosity, passion, and commitment truly embody our We Over Me culture. And we’re just getting started. We’re excited to build on this momentum and make an even greater difference in the year ahead. Thank you to all our Sun team members for your dedication! Here’s to another year of giving back and creating meaningful impact.

Last week, our office was filled with laughter, curiosity, and a whole lot of energy as we celebrated Bring Your Kid to Work Day! 🎉 From a surprise visit by Yogi Bear™ and Cindy Bear™ to a photo scavenger hunt office tour, the day was packed with fun and learning. The kids got a chance to explore what their parents do, lend a hand in a volunteer activity for Cardz for Kidz ❤️, and experience a behind-the-scenes look at our workplace. We can’t wait to do it all again next year! A big thank you to everyone who helped make it a day to remember! hashtag#BringYourKidToWorkDay hashtag#Sun hashtag#WorkplaceCulture
