ir2pid,
Thanks for the profile overview. For an Indian IT male, you have an interesting profile given your NGO work developing apps. What undergraduate school did you go to? This will help in my evaluation.
Without knowing that, I would recommend the below list of schools. It will be important to tease out your leadership roles at work and describe what you do outside of work to try to create a compelling story. If you would like to talk about your profile in more details and how I could help you get into your target schools, send me a note:
