The Foundation for a Drug Free World makes its "Truth About Drugs" series of booklets available to non-profit organizations free of charge.

"The 'Truth About Drugs' booklets makes it easy for anyone to be smart about drugs."

Each year, the United Nations commemorates June 26 as "International day against Drug Abuse and illicit Trafficking" and encourages anti-drug organizations and activists around the world to mark the day with activities that raise awareness of the major problem illicit drugs are to society.

The Foundation for a Drug Free World is a secular organization with a cross- section of volunteers and board members ranging from young people to old and from diverse religions including Christian, Muslim, the Jewish faith and the Church of Scientology.
