Meet the Staff

Theresa Stevens

Executive Director

Theresa joined the Foundation as their first full-time Executive Director in September of 2021. As an active community leader in Sun Prairie, she brings not only experience in non-profit marketing and communications but also a rich awareness of our community's needs. Theresa's vision is to promote a thoughtful, strategic and compassionate approach to development in support of our community’s greatest treasure, our library.

Cindy Stankey

Foundation Development Specialist

Cindy has been with the Foundation since 2012 and manages many of the day to day, behind the scenes, operations. She also serves as the Circulation Manager at the Sun Prairie Public Library. You've probably seen her there, as she has worked in Circulation Services since 2005. Prior to this Cindy educated her children at home after retiring from a 17 year stint as a Metallurgical Engineer performing failure and material analysis.
