Kfar Truman ( _he. כפר טרומן, lit. "Truman Village") is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the Shephelah around three kilometres east of Ben Gurion International Airport, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hevel Modi'in Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 606.

The moshav was established in 1949 by demobilised Palmach soldiers, and was initially called Beit Harel before being renamed after Harry S. Truman. The village was built on land which had belonged to the abandoned Arab village of Beit Nabala.
