In the May 2021 issue of Atlanta Magazine, Michele Stumpe was recognized among the 2021 Women Making a Mark honorees.
From an early age, Stumpe has followed her passion to help those close to home and across the globe. Her list of charitable contributions and professional accomplishments is so lengthy, it reads like fiction, but the truth is that she’s built her life around making a difference. She is is a co-founder and board member of Atlanta’s the Giving Kitchen; co-founder and CEO of Children of Conservation, a humanitarian organization in Africa; board chair of the Pan African Sanctuary Alliance, a coalition of wildlife centers; and a board member for the Chimpanzee Wildlife Sanctuary and Conservation Trust, among others.
“Giving back lets you get so much perspective and so much more out of life,” says Stumpe.
