Home Run Against Drugs has a unique assembly and/or community program for children (ages 4-10) that emphasize self-esteem, goal setting, nutrition, exercise, and the value of being alcohol, tobacco and drug free. "Homer" is the mascot for the Home Run Against Drugs Program. Homer has made appearances at major events such as: Major League Baseball's "Big League Challenge", the College World Series, All Star Pepsi, The Inner City Games and more. Homer has even been on ESPN.

As part of the assembly program, each child receives a gift, "Homer & Me", the world's first personalized children's book designed to promote a healthy, drug-free lifestyle. The story features Homer taking the child on a storybook tour of a big league baseball game. Along the way they ride on the "Home Run Express", a special bus that teaches the child about staying drug free and healthy along with helpful tips. Each book is personalized making the child the "star" of the story. The personalization of this book also empowers the child with the desire to read.


We work with Parent/Teacher groups, civic organizations and companies who want to present the Home Run Against Drugs program to children and place the book, "Homer & Me", in their hands. This program is available at no cost and is supported by grants, corporate sponsors, individual contributions and P.T.A./P.T.O.'s.

Home Run Against Drugs, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded by Thomas Kaczmarczyk and support by Ron Pelletier (Board Member and former coach of University of Alabama). The Home Run Against Drugs program is available throughout the U.S. As our National Spokesperson, Ozzie Smith, along with other Major League Players, such as: Lance Johnson, David Francia, Blake Stein and more are encouraging all communities to get involved in this unique drug prevention program for children (ages 4-10).
