The Friends of Sinn Féin or Cairde Sinn Féin is the name for three different Irish Republican organisations; located in Canada, the United States and, Australia respectively.

Each FOSF is associated with the political party Sinn Féin in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, and works with the Irish Canadian, Irish American and Irish Australian communities to foster good relations between the Sinn Féin party and the governments of those nations, and the goals of Sinn Féin (Irish Reunification, social democracy and Irish culture). The US organisation is one of the chief fundraising sources for Sinn Féin.

Cairde Sinn Féin is run by Joe Reilly, a Meath councillor and Ard Chomhairle member.
