Franklin Electric Hosts 2nd Annual "Future Franklineers Day" at Fort Wayne Headquarters
Fort Wayne, IN – August 14, 2024 – Franklin Electric Co., Inc. proudly hosted its annual “Future Franklineers Day” on July 22, welcoming more than 60 elementary, middle school, and high school students from the community for a day of learning and career exploration. The exclusive event allowed students of Franklin Electric employees to tour corporate headquarters, gain insights into the water systems industry, and learn about STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) careers in a real-world setting.
Students participated in interactive tours that allowed them to explore the company’s state-of-the-art research, development, and testing facilities. Each attendee spent time learning how motors operate and took home a kit to build their own mini motor. Company engineers, designers, and executives were on hand to answer questions and share their expertise. The event also provided networking opportunities, allowing Franklin Electric families to build lasting connections.
“Showing children a variety of STEM career possibilities is essential to the future of the industries we serve,” said Amanda Hecht, Director of Human Resources—Talent. “Future Franklineers Day is a chance for young learners to see firsthand how Franklin Electric innovation is a part of their everyday lives—from the water they drink to the cars they ride in.”
Franklin Electric proudly sponsors various local programs and education-based initiatives throughout Allen County, including United Way and Junior Achievement, to support future community leaders and beyond.
