Most people associate Hershey with chocolate, or the theme park named for the chocolate, located in a Pennsylvania town by the same name. All three things—the chocolate, the park, the town—are owed to one person: Milton Hershey, the candy magnate, who died in 1945. He left behind a fourth institution that also bears his name. A clue can be found in small print on the wrapping of Hershey chocolate bars, stating that every candy sold “helps educate children in need through Milton Hershey School.”
