Vitamin L
Every
year, Vitamin L inspires thousands of children with transformative
messages delivered through the magic of song. Vitamin L makes
meaningful connections with children through music - inspiring them to
grow into adults with personal integrity who treat others with dignity
and respect.
The
Vitamin L Project is a unique, innovative, music-based character
education project for young people founded in 1989 by songwriter Jan
Nigro and his wife, Executive Director Janice Nigro.
Vitamin
L’s original character-building music is available on four
award-winning CDs and via live concerts. Each year, Jan and the Vitamin
L chorus, a diverse group of young singers, ages 11 – 21, perform 50
-60 concerts at elementary schools and special events in Central New
York and beyond.
The
purpose of the Vitamin L Project is to encourage positive character
development in young people through the powerful medium of music. The
songs have meaningful positive messages and uplifting ideas. Our goal is
that our youth chorus members and our audiences absorb the lessons of
tolerance, respect, cooperation, kindness, perseverance and confidence
presented in the songs, and integrate these concepts in ways that help
them make positive choices and have healthy relationships with their
families, their friends and the world around them. Our goal is to reach
and positively influence as many children as possible. 
The Vitamin L Project has had, and continues to have, a transformative influence on youth who spend years performing with the group and on those who grow up listening to our music.

“What an absolute precious, precious gift you are sharing with young people. I think if more young people had the opportunity from an early age to experience something like this, the world would be a very different place.” Yolanda King – late daughter of Martin Luther King, Jr.
