Milton Hershey School
The health and welfare of children, especially those at risk, is a core focus of our philanthropic efforts. It began in 1909 with the establishment of a school for orphan boys. The Milton Hershey School continues to operate today as a cost-free, private home and school dedicated to helping children with social needs and limited resources.

HERSHEY'S Track & Field Games
The Hershey Company has sponsored HERSHEY'S Track & Field Games for more than 30 years. This program has introduced more than 10 million children in 3,000 communities across the U.S. and Canada to the fun and rewards of physical fitness. Hershey partners with USA Track & Field to increase awareness and promote the games. HERSHEY'S Track & Field Games culminate in the North American Final, held in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Each year, 500 children receive an all-expense-paid trip to participate in the North American Final and meet legends of the sport.

Helping children
We have a 20-year relationship with the Children's Miracle Network, a non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds for children's hospitals across North America. Through the dedicated efforts of Hershey employees, millions of dollars have been raised in support of the Children's Miracle Network.
