KiCoBa (Stichting Kinderen Corrie Baas) is a Dutch foundation established in 2002 shortly before the death of humanitarian nurse Corrie Baas. It channels income from its endowment and donations to small-scale projects supporting disadvantaged children, mainly in South Africa, Sri Lanka and Uganda, with a focus on health care, education and food security. The foundation supports projects directly or through recognised organisations, and is run by volunteer board members. It has announced plans to dissolve within five years, transferring its support to Kinderfonds MAMAS through a named fund, the KICOBA Corrie Baas Kinderfonds.
