…The Arizona Humanities Council worked with The Cagney Company to create an integrated development plan as part of a program organized by the Arizona State University Lodestar Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Innovation and funded by the Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust. Penelope Cagney provided direction and leadership to the council over the nine months of the program. Penelope is a seasoned professional, and our result is the most comprehensive and thoughtful integrated development plan in the council’s history. Penelope is a delight to work with, and the Arizona Humanities Council will be a stronger organization as a result of our collaboration.
