Thank you for the detailed post. Where did you study as an undergraduate?
Your list is good, although Wharton and MIT Sloan may be stretches based on the school you went to.
Let me know and I will advise you further. You have a nice profile and your passion for non-profit is certainly clear!
Email me to discuss further. [email protected]

You have a decent profile. Your academics and work experinece are really good. The list of B-Schools you have mentioned are good but MIT Sloan, Wharton, Yale SOM and Haas seems stretch B-Schools for you. I would recommend you to work hard on these B-School applications.
You can also send your resume at [email protected] for free profile evaluation.
