Pro Bono

Pro bono consulting support for nonprofits

Pro Bono is professional work provided voluntarily without charge, typically to nonprofit, charitable, community, or public-interest organizations, to contribute specialized expertise and support their strategic, operational, or organizational objectives.

Umbrex consultants are committed to giving back to their communities. Many of our members dedicate a portion of their time to supporting nonprofit clients on a pro bono basis. Contact us to request pro bono consulting support from a top tier independent management consultant.

What clients say

“I spoke with Umbrex on a Friday afternoon; on Monday morning a former McKinsey Engagement Manager was leading our post-merger integration effort.”
President, PE-owned portfolio company
“Umbrex is run by McKinsey alums, so they understand the type of talent I need.”
Managing Director, Midsize consulting firm
“We've got Umbrex on speed-dial.”
SVP of Enterprise Transformation, Fortune 500
“Some consultants talk at you. Umbrex is a partner. They listen and ask smart questions. They help me figure out exactly what kind of profile I need.”
Operating Partner, PE firm
“I appreciate the flexibility I get with Umbrex. No fixed pyramid model. I can get one or more consultants, full time or part-time, junior or senior, remote or on-site.”
Head of Strategy, Fortune 500
"No other firm operates with a comparable sense of urgency. Within twenty-four hours of speaking with Umbrex, I get profiles of highly qualified candidates who are a good fit for my project."
VP of Strategy, Fortune 100
"We think of Umbrex as a strategic partner."
EVP of Corporate Development, Fortune 500
"One way that Umbrex particularly earned my trust is that if they aren't the right solution for a given project, they tell me up front and recommend another firm."
Chief Operating Officer, PE portfolio company
