Robin Outland Eddy
Robin Outland Eddy recently completed her role as a program director/grants manager for the American Red Cross-Oklahoma Long Term Recovery and Resiliency in response to the 2013 storms. On June 30 2015, she completed her position as the program director for the Oklahoma Disaster Recovery Project, which is a collaboration of agencies providing long-term disaster case management throughout Oklahoma in response to the 2013 storms. These agencies, which at one time represented a staff of over 70 employees at ODRP, include the American Red Cross, Catholic Charities, The Salvation Army, Society of St. Vincent de Paul, the Oklahoma United Methodist Church, and Church of the Harvest. Robin continues to serve the American Red Cross as a volunteer board member and is still active in the 2013 response as a funder for the American Red Cross.
She started her career with the Red Cross nearly 29 years ago, serving in many volunteer and staff positions including executive director and volunteer board member in the roles of secretary of the board and volunteer chair. In May of 2013 when tornadoes ripped apart the state, she was the executive director for the American Red Cross covering three of the five areas hardest hit so it seemed only logical for her to help lead the long-term recovery efforts for her agency.
Robin also worked for 10 years at a Fortune 200 company in public relations, marketing, and sales in the area of due diligence for commercial real estate transactions across the country.
Her many other volunteer activities include leadership positions with United Way of Norman, Baby Steps Teen Parenting Program, Junior League of Norman, Norman Rotary Club, and Journey Church. She received the Clara Barton Award for Meritorious Leadership from the American Red Cross in 2008 and was named regional employee of the year for the American Red Cross in 2013. Robin is a graduate of Leadership Norman, Leadership Shawnee, and Leadership Moore.
Robin has two sons and is married to the Moore, Oklahoma city manager.
