*Camera on me*

"I’m Josiah Rawlings, I want to take you into the world of Vitamin L. I am one of the captains of this unique team."

"I want to tell you about our crowd funding program, and convince YOU that Vitamin L is a cause worth supporting"

"What is Vitamin L?"

(CONSIDER): Josiah: “Vitamin L is music. Vitamin L is uplifting. Vitamin L is an important part of the Ithaca community.”

*THEN transition to other footage*

"Vitmain L is...

(Words from Mrs. Little, Mrs. Preston, Baruch, and from kids in between.)

Then the quote from the Syracuse concert “Vitamin L was also honored by president Obama for their many years of service working with kids.”

ALSO: Any shots / montages on the outreach efforts of Vitamin L?

"When I was in 3rd or 4th grade Vitamin L came to my school. I especially remember after the concert when the kids get to get high fives from the chorus members. I remember walking down the hall and getting high fives, and at the end of the hall was my favorite chorus member, my hero, I ran up to him and gave him a big hug. Now, a couple years later I was at a concert and a kid ran up to me after a concert and gave me a big hug. That was a very special moment for me, to see everything come full circle like that. That is what Vitamin L is about to me."

*have shots of the kids giving and getting high fives.*

“Maybe the best person to help me send this message about Vitamin is Dr. Baruch Whitehead.”

*Baruch Whitehead telling why people should give to Vitamin L.*

"We ask that you give x amount to Vitamin L. Join us in making a difference."
