Jean B. Purvis Cornerstone Award given to Mike Robb
Michael Robb says he focuses on the ordinary aspects of life and tries to make them extraordinary.
Robb has been president and CEO of the Center for Community Resources since 2005.
After more than a year of waiting, Robb received the Jean B. Purvis Community Cornerstone Award from the community clinic of the same name at a dinner and ceremony Friday night.
In his speech, Robb said the community needs more people to make the ordinary extraordinary.
“So often, we're looking for extraordinary things when really they're just occurring every day,” Robb said. “You either have to be doing it or you don't. We need people who care, people who want to build.”
The Jean B. Purvis Community Cornerstone Award was created by the clinic to honor someone in Butler who has made positive advancements to the community.
