The Force for Health® NetworkA follow-up for The Rippel Foundation · October 5, 2026
For Bobby Milstein, Becky Payne & the Rippel team

Your published work, in play.

"…I suspect folks might be curious about your Mixed Media Maker. Do you have any illustrations that show what those functions look like in practice?"Bobby Milstein, September 29

We took you up on it. We ran four things Rippel has already published through the Mixed Media Maker: the Franklin Park investment brief, Stewards Rising, the Introduction to Shared Stewardship webinar and an Unsung Stewards episode. Here is what came out, plus five programs built the same way that are being readied for the inaugural season of Reality Health Games™.

This update is also added to our original overview, so everything stays in one place. Open the full deck →

Your question, answered

What the Maker did with your work

The Maker pulls the five to ten core messages out of each source and turns them into things people take, earn and share. Nobody has to sit through the full hour to get the point, and every action is counted.

Reality Health Games™ · inaugural season

The same Maker, five programs on the way

None of these started as a game. Each began as a story, a film, a book, a song or a broadcast that partners already had. All five are being readied for the inaugural season of Reality Health Games™ and are in final review and completion. Dr. Charles R. Drew is already live through our partner, the Sickle Cell Foundation of Arizona. We have not announced the full lineup yet, so please treat these as an early look.

One morning, remembered from a bedroom in Tucson and from the rubble of Lower Manhattan. Music is often the way into a hard subject, and it is a format Unsung Stewards stories could take too.

Two channels, two strategic hosts. We have just secured Science of Sport as co-host and strategic partner for our A³ · A-Cubed channel (Athletes · Artists · Angels). We would love for The Rippel Foundation to take that same seat on our T.E.A.M. Up for Communities channel, as its strategic host and partner.

A song for Rippel: Greater Together

We wrote an original Reality Health Rhythms song in honor of Rippel and the stewards who create the conditions everyone needs to thrive.

Three ways to start

Start with one

Measuring Thriving, the week it airs

Run your October 19 Toolbox webinar and the new Gallup–Rippel report through the Maker: a BASICS course, a recap with quotes by speaker, and posts your team approves before they go out.

Build a season

A Rippel channel

Every Toolbox webinar, Unsung Stewards episode and partner highlight becomes a course, badges and shareable cards, all collected on one Rippel channel.

Take it to a community

Franklin Park as a pilot

Group Leaders run the investment challenge, residents take the Healthy Citizen pledge, a local steward authors a community chapter, and engagement shows up by place.

What we would need from you

PermissionWritten OK to adapt Rippel content in co-branded formats
ReviewYour team approves wording before anything reaches residents under your name
One introductionA community ready to pilot the challenge and a chapter

Thirty minutes when your principals are back?

We would walk your team through the test drive, show what the Maker would do with the October 19 webinar, and answer whatever comes up. No hurry. We will follow your lead.
