Lights, Camera, Action!

Dozens of Milton Hershey School® students, along with staff from MHS and The Hershey Company®, worked with a 40+ member film crew the week of February 1 in filming a TV commercial that debuted nationally during the Academy Awards® on March 7.

The Hershey Co. commercial filming The Hershey Company produced the spot as part of its partnership with MHS. The commercial showcases the School through the eyes of its students and the legacy of Founders Milton S. and Catherine Hershey.
