“OKP brought a unique and professional approach to fundraising and philanthropy within our school parent and alumni community. OKP’s ability to engage and connect with our major stakeholders and campaign teams allowed for a systematic, personal and structured program to be implemented and to encourage giving at all levels. OKP provided our school with strong leadership and strategic direction with a positive and practical attitude.”

FAQs
Why do organisations engage OKP?
Organisations engage our services for a whole raft of reasons - address challenges, generate income, improve financial performance, diversify their portfolio, build internal capacity, bridge a skill gap, establish a new program, access market intelligence and expertise and for some it can be as simple as getting an outstanding job done!
How is OKP engaged?
We offer a range of engagement models: needs basis, project-based, collaboration, secondment and outsource arrangements. Most clients prefer to invest in a project fee or monthly retainer.
Our leadership is looking for an update on trends and best practice. Can you help?
Yes, we can. Our Giving Trends research initiative (62,000 contributors) and day to day experience keeps us abreast of the current and emerging trends and challenges. We are often called upon to address Boards, Fundraising Committees, Capital Campaign Committees and team meetings to impart market intelligence, trends and industry insights.
What investment level is needed to engage professional services?
We tailor a program to work within your budget. Prior to work being undertaken, we provide a fee proposal detailing professional fees and direct costs, if applicable.(eg ad placement costs, creative, photography etc). Investment levels we work within vary from $5,000 to $500,000. There are many initiatives your organisation can invest in to promote philanthropy, grow your business, refresh a sluggish program or empower your team. Streamline work plans are developed to maximise available resources.
