Instead of .config try .run, this will do exactly what you want.

angular.module('App', []).run(['$rootScope', function($rootScope) {
  $rootScope.foo = function() {
     alert("WIN!");
  };
}]);

angular.module('App').controller('HomeCtr', ['$scope', function($scope) {
  $scope.foo(); #will call the alert
}]);

NOTE I have only used module.controller because I like it, var HomeCtrl = function($scope) { will have the same effect.
