The MU Sinclair School of Nursing Humanitarian Award is given to those who provide support and care by volunteering their time and efforts to individuals and families in need. The banquet was held in April of 2009 and served to recognize individuals who have enhanced the reputation, research, teaching and service at the MU Sinclair School of Nursing. “The school’s annual banquet gives us a chance to honor those who have gone the extra mile and in the process elevated the bar of excellence in the field of nursing,” said Judith Fitzgerald Miller, dean of the school. “Ginger is a true example of how a single person, a nurse, can influence individuals, groups and a community. She is a shining model of how we should all live our lives.”

The Robinson’s strong faith plays a large role in their personal and professional lives. They began FTC in 1993 in order to convey the compassion of Christ by providing medical care primarily for children, but also for adults, in developing countries. They have traveled to Vietnam, China and Bolivia and they believe that by using their educational backgrounds and the latest skills in health care, FTC can improve lives one patient at a time.

Mrs. Robinson received her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Missouri in 1981 and currently resides in Colorado with her husband and their three children Eric, Scott and Anna.
