Proposed deletion
edit@Piotrus: While this article is barely a stub at the moment, it can be improved substantially to meet the general notability guidelines. There are a number of independent sources which meet the proper depth of coverage to meet the guidelines. I will work to improve the article sufficiently, beyond the edit I just made. Thank you for bringing this to my attention as the article certainly needs it.
I also wanted to add that the message in your proposed deletion template is in conflict with the template itself. The prod proposal is allowed to be removed without comment. As it is stated in the template: "You may remove this message if you improve the article or otherwise object to deletion for any reason. Although not required, you are encouraged to explain why you object to the deletion, either in your edit summary or on the talk page." --hmich176 10:02, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
Updates to page
editHello, I work for the Hershey Trust Company. I have some suggestions for bringing the article up to date. I would like to include the following information in the History section:
In 1963, The Hershey Trust Company made a $50 million gift from Milton Hershey School Trust to Pennsylvania State University for a medical school and teaching hospital named the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center.[1]
In the 1980’s, the Hershey Trust Company began to focus on developing more traditional trust business and in 1989 the company began actively soliciting private business.[2]
In 1991, the Hershey Trust Company moved its office location to High Point Mansion, located in Hershey, Pennsylvania.[2]
In 2020, the courts approved the Milton Hershey School’s plan to open six preschools in Pennsylvania that would offer free services to children from low-income homes.[3] The Hershey Trust provided the $350 million plan to establish the early childhood centers, the first of which was opened in 2023.[4]
