Korean Culture and Freedom Foundation

The Korean Culture and Freedom Foundation, Inc. (KCFF) is a non-profit organization headquartered in Washington, D.C, United States, that is sponsored by the Unification Church. When it was founded in 1964, former U.S. Presidents Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower were named as honorary presidents of the organization and former Vice President Richard Nixon (then practicing corporate law) was named as a director.[1]

According to the Conclusions and Recommendations section of the Report of the Subcommittee on International Organizations of the Committee on International Relations' Investigation of Korean-American Relations (colloquially known as the "Fraser Report"), "The Moon Organization established the KCFF ostensibly as a non-profit foundation to promote Korean-American relations, but used the KCFF to promote its own political and economic interests and those of the ROK Government."[2]
