Guest guest Posted August 14, 2001 Report Share Posted August 14, 2001 This may be interesting.....Hershey's gives a portion of their profits to charity including an orphanage. One of their recent CEO's grew up in the Hershey orphanage. Ten percent of their profits is what comes to mind for what Hershey gives to their charities. So, even the intent of the makers of the Hershey's kisses are sweet! Namah Shivaya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 15, 2001 Report Share Posted August 15, 2001 Actually, as a kid growing up I listened to many sermons telling how the Hershey's founder started out giving 10% of profits to God and then as the Lord continued to bless the business, the owner kept tithing more and more until he ended up giving 90% of the profits away and keeping only 10% for himself. I've often thought of this as I see Amma handing out the Hershey's kisses. (I have no idea what the company is doing these days, but suspect there is at least some emphasis on giving. In the early days, there weren't as many chocolate competitors:-)!)
