The 2024-25 academic year is highlighted by another successful [Fluid Power Action Challenge](https://www.nfpa.com/fluid-power-action-challenge) season. Thanks to the 19 member companies who hosted, sponsored, or volunteered at nine known events, we helped 940 students learn about fluid power. Some members even sponsored or sent volunteers to multiple events.

Members, thank you for sharing your time, talent, and people! Students across the nation benefitted and learned about fluid power while receiving encouragement and insight from your wonderful representatives. The hands-on [Fluid Power Action Challenge](https://www.nfpa.com/fluid-power-action-challenge) also helped students strengthen important life skills…teamwork, communication, time management, project management, basic hand tool use, and problem solving-which will pay dividends.

NFPA looks forward to the upcoming 2025-26 Fluid Power Action Challenge season, collaborating with you, and bringing fluid power education to students. If you or others in your company would like to host, sponsor, or volunteer at future events, please contact **James Foster at **[**jfoster@nfpa.com**](mailto:jfoster@nfpa.com). Again, thanks for your ongoing support of growing the fluid power industry!
