Priyanka Chopra is teaming up with Crocs to make a major donation to health care workers across the globe.
Chopra, who became a Crocs brand ambassador in October 2019, announced on her Instagram last night that she and the brand will give away 10,000 pairs of shoes to medical professionals at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, as well as donate another 10,000 pairs to health care workers in public and government hospitals across India, the actress’ home country.

In addition to allowing medical workers to request pairs on its site, Crocs has committed to donating up to 100,000 pairs of shoes to be distributed to select health care facilities and organizations.
In addition to Crocs, dozens of footwear brands are donating free pairs of shoes to medical professionals that are on their feet at work all day. Bearpaw, Keds and Allbirds are just a few of the brands that have stepped up to use their products for good during the pandemic. Donated pairs can range from casuals for support staff to duty shoes that feature slip-resistant outsoles for workers on the front lines.
