The industry’s leading underwriters

In addition to providing insurance, the company focuses on the administration of funeral policies on behalf of the underwriters.

A commitment to social responsibility

Genlife is dedicated to making a positive impact on the communities where its clients reside through their social responsibility initiatives. As an administrator, the company understands the importance of planning ahead for a funeral to avoid a financial and emotional burden on loved ones during a time of mourning.

In 2013, Genlife established the Genlife G.I.F.T Foundation, a non-profit organisation that strives to give back to various communities across South Africa. The company has adopted the students of Thusanang in Daveyton and sponsors a funeral policy for every student attending the school, demonstrating their commitment to community involvement.

Furthermore, Genlife believes in creating employment opportunities within the communities they operate in, which contributes to their social responsibility goals. Overall, Genlife is committed to being a responsible corporate citizen and making a difference in the lives of less privileged individuals and communities in South Africa.
