We want to drive positive and lasting change around the world. Using our expertise and strong partnerships, we're responding to global challenges with local care.

Supporting Our Communities Through COVID-19

The global pandemic continued to impact communities around the world throughout 2021. When the Delta variant threatened in-person learning in fall 2021, we revived our mask distribution program. We dispatched over 575,000 masks to nonprofits and students across dozens of school districts. When the pandemic devastated India, our local team acted rapidly by distributing 500 oxygen concentrators to hospitals across the country. In addition, we made a $50,000 commitment with nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) GiveIndia and Milaap to assist hospitals with procuring ventilators, oxygen concentrators and cylinders. Our Hershey Brazil team donated $169,000 for pandemic relief, which was used to provide food baskets, hospital materials and equipment. In the U.S., we organized multiple on-site vaccine clinics for employees and their dependents (aged five and over) who wanted to get vaccinated or receive a booster shot. We also continued our flexible working conditions so that corporate employees could keep working from home and via a hybrid in-office work environment. We focused on the health and safety of all our employees working in-person by continuing to provide proper personal protective equipment (PPE), COVID-19 antigen home tests and physically distanced workspaces.

Becoming Stronger Together

Investing in our people is always a worthwhile investment. From building more inclusive workplaces to supporting employee wellness, we are continuously finding more ways to better support the Hershey workforce of today and tomorrow. Through our Pathways Project we committed to achieving a college recruiting portfolio that is at least 50% diverse. To help us meet this target, we added 23 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Hispanic-serving Institutions (HSIs) to our roster of schools we recruit from. We are also incredibly proud to have been named as the World's Top Female Friendly Company by Forbes for the inaugural ranking. We continue to offer SmartFlex benefits programs that enable employees to achieve a better work/life balance and our programs to provide resources that support physical and mental health.
