Mayor Ricky and First Lady Shannon Shelton founded the non profit foundation Better Cookeville in 2016 to be a Community and Economic catalyst that will build, connect, promote and distribute resources and knowledge by supporting local organizations, events, partnerships and initiatives for the common good and to enhance the quality of life of our citizens. 100% of the money you invest in Better Cookeville is reinvested in and for our community!
