Ahead of the national launch, the brand released a limited amount of CROC French Vanilla with a special message for consumers in early August.

Mama Hope works with visionary entrepreneurs in Africa and around the world who hustle every day to build the best schools, health clinics, and sustainable businesses so their communities can thrive. As an added benefit to the program, Sean Combs announced that he would personally match the brand donation, totaling a $200,000 collective contribution.

"He looks at everything like an investment in the future of our culture and we all have to own our part in being a better example for the next generation, that means working harder and celebrating responsibly. Whether it's the music I'm working on or developing my own flavor of CROC, he wants me to win as a testament to the hustle."
