    When the Hershey Bears scored their first goal in last night's game, it was sweet, cuddly mayhem, thanks to the bear-y best fans in the American Hockey League! The result? A new world record with the 2025 GIANT Teddy Bear Toss collecting more than 102,000 stuffed animals for local charities. We're proud to be a part of this annual event with Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Company, which has collected more than 566,000 plush toys since 2001!

  • Our team members create magic for our customers every day, and today, we’re sharing a story that really captures the spirit of the holiday season. Kathy Sweigert, vice president of the Mid-Atlantic Division, recently stumbled upon a social media post from a mother whose son Desi had lost his beloved stuffed snowman, Frosty. Kathy, whose daughter has her own stuffed monkey she could not live without, was excited and motivated to help. The social post indicated that Frosty was purchased from MARTIN'S, so Kathy contacted the merchandising team to see if we could get a new friend for Desi. That's where Ted Williams, director of center store merchandising, came in to help. Ted and his team quickly realized this particular snowman was no longer available, so they made a few calls. "We reached out quickly to our import supplier and learned that there were no product samples available. We then asked the supplier if they could manufacture a new one, and they agreed," Ted shared. "Bobby Hough, our seasonal/GM category manager, then helped our supplier along the way to ensure the snowman was manufactured, shipped, and eventually arrived at our Carlisle Support Center." "Working with a team that prioritizes kindness, collaboration, and doing what's right for the customer is truly inspiring," Kathy said. "It's the passion and commitment of Ted and Bobby that transformed my idea into an impactful result, making the entire process just as meaningful as the outcome." With the new snowman secured, Kathy delivered him to Desi's mom at store #6466 in Altoona, PA, so that new memories could be created this holiday season and for many more to come.
