Tammy Tumbling has been nominated for 2024’s Remarkable Women Award for her work as the president of the Orange County Community Foundation, which channels nearly $100 million to nonprofits each year.
Her path to a life of giving started in Compton.
“Growing up in the city of Compton, one of the things that shaped me into who I am today was the sense of community,” Tumbling told KTLA 5 News anchor Megan Telles. “We were very, very poor, but we were rich in love. We were rich in faith. You name it we had every type of government assistance.”
