Every day, nonprofit organizations and community revitalization efforts battle for revenue.

Thrive Allen County is beefing up its arsenal with the addition of John Robertson.

An attorney by profession, Robertson, 55, has dedicated more than three decades to the non-profit industry and is poised to bring in big dollars for the Allen County health-based 501(c)3 corporation.

Robertson’s career began in securing funds for housing developments in Michigan with the civil rights community action agency called New Detroit, one of the core programs in the original war on poverty waged by President Lyndon Johnson.
