The Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East (FRRME) is an organisation founded by the Reverend Canon Andrew White to promote inter-faith relations in the Middle East. [The FRRME's website - http://www.frrme.org/]

It works towards resolving the religious conflict between Judaism, Islam and Christianity in the region from Canon White's base in Iraq where he is vicar of St George's Church in Baghdad.

The operation requires annual funds of approximately $3 million USD.
