NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / August 4, 2026 / The Baltimore Orioles and Truist today announced "Homers for Homerooms," a new philanthropic initiative that will generate a donation for every Orioles home run at Oriole Park at Camden Yards throughout the 2026 season. For each home run hit, Truist will donate $212.01 to Harlem Park Elementary Middle School, the club's Adopt-A-School. A nod to the iconic ballpark's 21201 zip code, the program connects on-field performance directly to meaningful community impact, with funds supporting students, teachers, and administrators at Harlem Park.
"There is nothing like celebrating an Orioles home run, and this added element to each moment will make those celebrations even greater," shared DON ROVAK, Orioles Chief Revenue Officer. "We're grateful to Truist for their on-going partnership, and their shared dedication to giving back to our adopted school of Harlem Park Elementary Middle School."
"Through 'Homers for Homerooms,' every Orioles home run becomes a meaningful investment in Baltimore's future," said T. J. HUGHES, Truist Regional President for Greater Washington and Maryland. "At Truist, our purpose is to inspire and build better lives and communities, and this initiative brings that to life in an impactful way for students, teachers, and the broader community."
The "Homers for Homerooms" initiative builds on the recently announced partnership between the Orioles and Truist, in which Truist was named the official bank of the Baltimore Orioles. Together, the organizations are committed to creating memorable fan experiences and lasting impact across Baltimore.
The Orioles robust partnership with the Harlem Park community began in April 2024, when the club launched the Adopt-A-School program, which is grounded in the belief that unwavering support and impactful opportunities can play a pivotal role in accelerating student and school success. This allows the Orioles to stand as a committed partner in impacting Harlem Park students' lives and learning for years to come.
