  • As a company that firmly believes in social responsibility, Crocs™ is a supporter of area charities and non-profit organizations and take a vested interest in getting involved. Our primary mission in 2006 was to donate approximately 400,000 pairs of shoes to humanitarian efforts and disaster relief programs. We partnered with over 25 organizations to donate product to those in need around the world.

    One of our primary partners is Brother's Brother.

    The mission of Brother's Brother Foundation (BBF) is to promote international health and education through the efficient and effective distribution and provision of donated medical, educational, agricultural and other resources.

    All BBF programs are designed to fulfill its mission by connecting people's resources with people's needs.

    Brother's Brother Foundation began in 1958 as a dream of a few to help the many around the world who lack good healthcare, education and nutrition.

  • In 2006 BBF and their many in country partners teamed up with crocs to deliver shoes to those in need around the world. Examples of two of these efforts follow:

    • 1-40ft. container (20 pallets) of matched seconds was shipped direct from the Crocs warehouse to BBF's warehouse in Pittsburgh. These pallets were sent along with various medical shipments to Central America and the Caribbean in 2006.
    • These were divided into smaller quantities and sent to partners in the region. By sending smaller quantities of Crocs to various hospitals and clinics throughout Latin America, BBF was able to provide shoes for doctors, nurses and patients in many locations.
