Event Details

Today, the name "Hershey" is synonymous with quality milk chocolate, but that wasn't always the case. Milton S. Hershey worked hard and failed often before his chocolate company was successful. When he finally became a household name with a vast fortune, Milton and his wife Catherine decided to give it all away. Thanks to their generosity, tens of thousands of orphans have been saved, protected, and educated. Join historian Laura Keyes for the "behind the scenes" story of this beloved American company.
