Hershey page 3

Hershey page 3 by ric gustafson


Milton Hershey bought the first car in Lancaster and advertised his chocolate. In 1907, Milton invented a little piece of chocolate and put it in tin foil. The Hershey's Kiss was born. Milton treated his employees well and built parks, an amusement park and a zoo for them to enjoy. During the Great Depression, none of his employees lost their jobs. Milton and his wife Kitty started a school for orphaned boys.
In 1915, Kitty Hershey died. In 1918, Milton gave his entire fortune to the Milton Hershey School. On October 13, 1945 Milton Hershey died. He was 88 years old and his chocolate factory in Hershey Pennsylvania is still the largest chocolate plant in the world.
