Hi, I'm Mayura.
I'm an independent social impact and philanthropy consultant based in the Bay Area.
I work with an array of purpose-driven organizations across the philanthropic, corporate, non-profit, and academic sectors to scale and advance their missions.
I started my social impact journey by founding One Thread Fair Trade, empowering marginalized female artisans in Southern India. I then joined TOMS Shoes, helping to build the supply chain for the giving side of the business. Afterward, as Director of Giving at One World Play Project, I managed giving operations and forged global NGO alliances. My passion for global health led me to Partners In Health, where I developed corporate partnerships to improve healthcare access in resource-poor areas. Now, I continue my work through my consulting practice.
