Yes McK does

Yes - BCG has publicly referenced relationships with the UN World Food Programme, Save the Children and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, all of which I believe have offered secondments. Bain also publicly references secondments at the World Economic Forum, WHO, and the UN World Food Programme. BCG has also supported secondments at smaller non-profits beyond the above marquee relationships - I have a relative who went on secondment at a Southern African tea cooperative.

Also the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation

Yep. Lots go to Bridgespan too (Bain spin out / close affiliate, they come to our trainings, etc)
