The Spark Kindness App

Spark Kindness Tour
Join us as we unite our country in kindness! We are kicking off our Spark Kindness Tour starting in Albuquerque, New Mexico and ending in Colchester, Vermont. We’ll have many stops along the way to spread kindness across cities near and far.
We believe kindness can be found everywhere. So, we want to show our support to more places and organizations making a difference along the way! If you know of a person or organization spreading kindness in your town, we want to know about it! Use our contact form and bring the Spark Kindness Tour to your town.
Why Albuquerque and Colchester?
Both Albuquerque and Colchester hold a special place in Jennifer’s story. Her hometown of Colchester, VT taught her the values that shaped the Kind, Loving, Caring, and Sharing person we knew.
Jennifer and Michael Riordan took a leap of faith and moved across the country to make Albuquerque, NM their home. Jennifer touched the lives of countless people in both cities through her love for life and many passion projects. So, it’s only fitting that our first Spark Kindness Tour begins in Albuquerque and ends in Colchester!
Our stops along the way will include:
- Albuquerque, New Mexico
- Amarillo, TX
- Springfield, MO
- Indianapolis, IN
- Richmond, IN
- Columbus, OH
- Cleveland, OH
- Buffalo, NY
- Colchester, VT

Bought and pair for an item over the phone from a local business today. I’ve never been in the store before and it was my first time buying anything from them. I asked the person on the phone to mail the item to me because I wasn’t sure when I’d have time to pick it up. When I got home tonight, there was a bag hanging from my front door handle… someone had personally delivered it to my house.
