Milton Hershey

Henry Ford and Milton Hershey were both successful American entrepreneurs who founded their own companies that became industry giants. They both revolutionized their respective industries with innovative business practices and products. Additionally, both Ford and Hershey had a strong focus on employee welfare, with Ford introducing the $5 workday and Hershey creating a model town for his workers.

Milton Hershey's middle name was Snavely, given in honor of his mother's family surname.

Milton Hershey was influenced by his mother, Fanny Hershey, who inspired his interest in candy-making. Additionally, he was inspired by his experiences working at a confectionery shop in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, which sparked his passion for creating his own successful candy business.

There is no specific information available about Milton Hershey's exact height as a first-born child. Milton Hershey, the founder of the Hershey Chocolate Company, was born on September 13, 1857. His adult height was around 5 feet 9 inches (175 cm).

Milton Hershey did not have any children. His wife, Catherine Sweeney had syphilis and as a result could not bare a child.

Milton Hershey did not have any children due to the fact his wie couldn't bear a child...

Milton Hershey quit school at around the age of 14 to work and gain real-world experience. He started working in various jobs, eventually gaining the skills and knowledge that would later help him establish his own successful business empire.

I live near the area and I only know of one story. A long time ago, a man worked for the ride called the comet. Something happened ( I don't know what) but he was involved in an accident on the ride that caused his death. Supposedly his ghost haunts the ride and he can sometimes be seen walking or pacing near the ride. I've never seen any paranormal evidence though and I have been going there since I was a child.

Milton Hershey was apparently a very fair man who believed in keeping his employees happy. He was forward-thinking and understood that the success of his company would depend on taking care of his employees and providing for their welfare. Although he had missed out on a proper education himself, he believed in providing opportunities for education and self-improvement among his workers. Essentially, he has been described as a humanitarian.

Milton Hershey's first successful candy making making business was selling caramel. He started the Lancaster Caramel Company. In 1900, he decided that since his best selling items were caramels dipped in chocolate that he wanted to pursue chocolate making.

He sold his caramel company and with the proceeds bought 30 acres of dairy farm land and started perfecting his own recipe for good tasting and affordable milk chocolate (at the time milk chocolate was an expensive luxury).

He produced his first Hershey chocolate bar in 1900 and followed up with the production of Hershey Kisses in 1907. He broke ground on what is now the Hershey Foods Corporation on March 2, 1903.

One of the biggest lessons we can learn from Hershey is failure and persistence. Hershey tried many times to create a good recipe and he failed many times until he got it right, creating one of the most recognizable candy companies in the world.

he worked in many different candy shops and that is where he got his skills for making his chocolate. And every time he failed he went back to learn more skils until he got the right mixture o sugar, milk, and coco.

Milton S. Hershey, founder of the Hershey Chocolate Company, and his wife Catherine, founded the Milton Hershey School in 1909. They had no children of their own and wanted to help orphan boys in need get a good education. Today, the school, located on more than 10,000 acres in Hershey, serves boys and girls from 4 years of age through their 12th grade graduation, who are in social and financial need.

The school provides everything for the children - a top-notch education, recreation, food, housing, clothing, medical and dental care. The children live with a married houseparent couple in homes with about 10 to 12 students their age. More than just caretakers,

houseparents take an active, nurturing interest in students' development and well-being.

The School emphasizes rigorous academics, character education and hands-on work experience. Senior high school students get training in career/technical areas. Each graduating student also can earn a continuing education scholarship to pursue college or career training.

Just as importantly, the school provides caring structure and guidance to help children learn responsibility and keep them safe.

Students also have many co-curricular opportunities, from sports to visual and performing arts, to agricultural interests.

Milton Hershey School's mission is to nurture and educate children in social and financial need to lead fulfilling and productive lives.
