Ripley Received $10,000 from TSET Healthy Incentive Grants to Support Community Health
Ripley, OK – The Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET) has awarded a TSET Healthy Incentive Grant of $10,000 to the Town of Ripley which supports local initiatives promoting healthier living.
The funding will be used to enhance Sharum Park. These improvements will provide residents with greater opportunities to engage in healthy lifestyles and contribute to long-term community wellness.
The TSET Board of Directors awarded the Healthy Incentive Grant during its meeting on May 29, 2025. The grant recognizes the community’s commitment to adopting policies and programs that improve public health and create a healthier environment for residents.
"We are honored to receive the TSET Healthy Incentive Grant and look forward to implementing the Sharum Park Upgrade to improve the health and well-being of our residents," said Courtney Lord, Board Member.
"Upgrading the park will provide a more inviting space that encourages physical activity, outdoor play, and community connection, promoting healthier living for all ages, Courtney explained. By prioritizing policies that support public health, we are making a lasting investment in a stronger, healthier future for our community."
TSET Healthy Incentive Grants for Communities are awarded to municipalities that implement policies encouraging healthy behaviors, such as tobacco-free environments, access to healthy foods and opportunities for physical activity. These grants aim to support local governments in creating environments where residents can live healthier lives.
