About ABO

A Foundation Built on Care

Stichting ABO (Aruba Bevolkingsonderzoek) is Aruba's national foundation for cancer screening. We exist to make early detection accessible, understandable, and comfortable for every member of our island community.

Our three programs — BOB, BOCA, and CORESA — are designed to catch cancer at its earliest stages, when treatment is most effective. We believe knowledge is power, and screening is an act of self-care.
