Ending Homelessness Award

Ending Homelessness Award Recipient,
Cornelia "Cornie" Thornburgh

Since joining The Lord's Place board in 2012, Cornie has demonstrated exceptional leadership, serving 13 years as a director and trustee, including nine years as board chair. Her strategic vision came to fruition through her leadership in guiding the board through a $20 million Home for Good Campaign. She opened doors and worked in tandem with staff to build new relationships and connect donors who shared a similar vision of hope and compassion, successfully raising funds to construct a new 25,000 square foot facility, expand housing, and start the conversation of sustainability.

We will share many more reasons why Cornie is so deserving of this award, along with inspiring client stories, an address from our current CEO, Christine Frederick, and so much more at the Ending Homelessness Breakfast on Thursday, November 20, 2025.  Please join us!
