In subsequent tweets, Priyanka went on to add that they have "partnered" with the footwear brand to donate "50,000 pairs of Crocs Classic Clogs to deserving school children in Belize" and give them a basic necessity like shoes, "which will play a role in getting these kids to school."

Priyanka further said, "We hope to take this wonderful initiative to children in countries across the world."

This initiative is very special to me. What started as a conversation with @Crocs of shared interests and concerns for the children of the world, has blossomed into this amazing association with @UNICEF, an organisation that is so close to my heart. pic.twitter.com/p2wy0JSwNo— PRIYANKA (@priyankachopra) December 12, 2019
