Carrie A. Tuggle (May 28, 1858 – November 5, 1924) was an American educator, philanthropist, and social activist. After emancipation, she sought for equality in education, and the right to exercise voting rights in Birmingham, Alabama. She established Tuggle Institute, a local boarding school for black children who were destitute orphans and juvenile defendants, and were given free education. The Tuggle Institute functioned with support from the Order of Calanthe and the Knights and Ladies of Honour of Alabama.
