The Foundation KiKa (Dutch: Kinderen Kankervrij; English: Children Cancerfree) is a Dutch charity foundation that brings in fundings solely for research to childhood cancers. Renewing research to this form of cancer requires a treatment that specifically aims to the genomic properties.

KiKa supports the seven children cancer centers in the Netherlands:

  • Sophia Kinderziekenhuis (Sophia Child hospital) in Rotterdam
  • Willem-Alexander Kinder- en Jeugdcentrum (Willem-Alexander Child- and Youth center) in Leiden
  • VU medisch centrum (VU Medical center) and Emma Kinderziekenhuis (Emma Child hospital) in Amsterdam
  • Wilhelmina Kinderziekenhuis (Wilhelmina Child hospital) in Utrecht
  • Beatrix kinderkliniek (Beatrix Child clinic) in Groningen
  • Universitair Medisch Centrum St Radboud (University Medical Center St Radboud) in Nijmegen

    • Olympic swimming champion Inge de Bruijn is ambassador of the foundation.
