“The Cagney Company provided the Mesa Arts Center Foundation with an in-depth assessment of our Board of Directors and facilitated a useful and lively retreat to capitalize on the findings of the assessment. The entire process has served as a catalyst to raise our already active board’s performance to even greater heights. I recommend them without hesitation to any board seeking to move from good to great.”

”…thoughtful insights proved beneficial time and again as we’ve undertaken building a comprehensive development program at the new Musical Instrument Museum.”

"Penelope Cagney helped us move from novice to proficient in capital campaign design and implementation. She guided the development of the infrastructure and disciplines necessary to execute our first campaign, and we're delighted to have retained her again to help us move our growing foundation forward."

"Arizona State University Foundation engaged The Cagney Company to conduct a philanthropic planning study for the Arizona State University Art Museum. Though this philanthropic planning study, the Museum identified a $2,500,000 challenge gift, the first seven-figure gift in the Museum’s 50-year history, as well as other potentially significant gifts. The study proved an accurate and insightful map for a successful $5,000,000 campaign."

“Consultant Penelope Cagney provided us with an insightful and sensitive assessment of The National Cultural Centre (Cairo Opera House) as well as a useful consultation with American University on our need for arts management education. I recommend her as a highly intelligent, capable and resourceful advisor.”

"Penelope Cagney provided us with focus, purpose and depth and breadth of experience. Because of her, we avoided making many serous mistakes that have seriously deterred us from our goal. Because of her, we made many right choices that have resulted in many millions of dollars for us and exponentially increased our donor base."
