Did you know that Indonesia recorded 53,131 dengue cases and 404 fatalities in 2024? According to the Ministry of Health, dengue primarily impacts children aged 5–14, making it a critical health concern. To combat this, our Indonesia team stepped up to make a difference. Almost 100 dedicated teammates volunteered to reach over 1,000 elementary school students across four schools, sharing essential knowledge about dengue prevention in a way that was fun, engaging and memorable. Here’s how we brought classrooms to life: 📌 Mosquito lifecycle videos straight from the HIT R&D lab 📌 Illustrated situational cards and animated videos to explain the dangers of dengue 📌 Interactive games and lively dances, turning learning into an enjoyable experience 📌 Special take-home gifts, creating a lasting impact and inspiring young minds This initiative is part of an ongoing effort, reflecting our commitment to continuously support and educate communities in the fight against dengue. By empowering children with knowledge, we’re not just protecting lives—we’re nurturing a generation equipped to take an active role in Indonesia’s mission to eliminate dengue.

At the start of this year, Argentina saw an alarming historical record of a 400% rise in Dengue cases, making mosquito protection more crucial than ever. In response, our team in Latin America, in collaboration with VN – our trusted skincare brand – developed VN Repellents that protect against the Aedes aegypti mosquito the primary carrier of Dengue. Formulated with diethyltoluamide (DEET), a powerful mosquito-repellent ingredient, VN repellents are available in two variants – Family and Extra Protection – have quickly become a game-changer, earning the trust of families across Argentina. Here's why we love it: 📌 Protects against mosquitoes, flies, gnats, and other insects 📌 Specifically repels the Aedes aegypti mosquito, the primary Dengue carrier 📌 Contains DEET for maximum effectiveness 📌 Paraben-free, cruelty-free, and vegan-friendly 📌 Clinically and dermatologically tested Camila Castillo Jiménez Camila Domljanovic Leticia Cammarata
