730 + non-profit = WOW!

You are off to a good start.
I'd leave off the finance goals, cause they don't make much sense given your experience, plus you can likely get soooooo much more out of presenting non-profit goals!
Where to apply? With a 730 and from non-profit, anywhere you like. It doesn't mean schools like Stanford or Harvard of Booth will be easy. Not by a long shot. But you will likely have a chance. Depends on your application! :)
