LAKERS AND EAST WEST BANK PARTNER FOR TREES FOR THREES INITIATIVE


 

 

EL SEGUNDO – The Los Angeles Lakers are teaming up with East West Bank this season for the Trees for Threes initiative. Starting Opening Day on October 28, 2014 through March 19, 2015, each time the Lakers score a three-pointer at home, East West Bank will fund the planting of a tree in the Los Angeles community. An updated tally of trees scored will be available after each Lakers home game on the official Tree Tracker at www.lakers.com/TreesForThrees.

 

The Trees for Threes final count will be announced during a pregame presentation at Lakers Eco Night on March 22, 2015 at STAPLES Center. A representative from East West Bank will be on hand to present the total number of trees to TreePeople, a non-profit environmental organization which will ultimately execute the tree-planting in the Los Angeles area.
