Freedom House merupakan sebuah pertubuhan tanpa untung yang berpusat di Washington, D.C. dengan pejabat cabang di berbagai negara. Pertubuhan ini bertujuan untuk mempromosikan kebebasan di seluruh dunia melalui sistem demokrasi.
Ditubuhkan oleh Wendell Willkie, Eleanor Roosevelt, George Field, Dorothy Thompson, Herbert Bayard Swope, dan lain-lain pada 1941, mereka mulanya bergabung untuk menentang fahaman Nazi. Pada tahun 1940-an, Freedom House mendukung Pelan Marshall dan penubuhan NATO. Freedom House juga mengkritik fahaman McCarthyisme.
