Excerpt:
Haddonfield isn’t just a town, it is a community; a community of very friendly people; Its residents were very interested in learning all about The Kindness Bus Tour. I must have had thirty long conversations with people from the area. I got a sense after awhile, that this community is involved in many ways of reaching out to those in need. Visiting Haddonfield, needs to be on everyone’s bucket list.

Haddonfield Mayor Colombi expressed it best by saying: "This is a great opportunity for our community to support Mia Strobel and at the same time hear some beautiful music.
