Trees play an important role in sustaining a healthy environment. Every tree planted by a Lion is part of a large scale effort by members around the world to make a significant impact on the environment.

During the past year Lions reported planting over 15 million trees.

History

Lions Clubs International, a service membership organization of over 1.4 million members worldwide (as of April 2015), was founded in the United States on June 7, 1917, by Melvin Jones, a Chicago businessman. Jones asked, with regard to his colleagues, "What if these men who are successful because of their drive, intelligence and ambition, were to put their talents to work improving their communities?" Jones' personal code, "You can't get very far until you start doing something for somebody else," reminds many Lions of the importance of community service.

The Lions motto is "We Serve." Local Lions Club programs include sight conservation, hearing and speech conservation, diabetesawareness, youth outreach, international relations, environmental issues, and many other programs. The discussion of politics and religion is forbidden. The LIONS acronym also stands for

Liberty, Intelligence, Our Nations' Safety.

The Blacksburg Breakfast Lions Club was founded in 1973 and is a chartered member of the International Lions Club. Globally, the Lions Club has 1.3 million men and women in 202 countries and geographic areas, who work together to answer the needs that challenge communities around the world.
