The Ralph Lauren Center for Patient and Family Recovery
in
Goyang, South Korea
, will provide a dedicated recovery environment for cancer patients and their families and caregivers
SEOUL, South Korea
--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 8, 2026--
Ralph Lauren (NYSE:RL) today announced a partnership with the
Korea National Cancer Center Foundation
to establish
The Ralph Lauren Center for Patient and Family Recovery
at the
National Cancer Center of Korea
(NCC) in
Goyang, South Korea
, marking the first Ralph Lauren cancer center in
Asia
. Building on Ralph Lauren’s longstanding support for cancer prevention and treatment efforts, the new center represents the next chapter in its commitment to expanding access to quality cancer care in communities around the world, including within
Korea
, where it has provided support since 2012. The
Ralph Lauren
Center
will
serve
as
a
hub
for
patients,
families
and
caregivers from the
Seoul
metropolitan area and communities across
South Korea
,
offering
access
to
resources
and
programs
that
promote
recovery
and
well-being.
The Ralph Lauren Center for Patient and Family Recovery
is expected to open in 2028 and will be located within the
Phase II Proton Therapy Center
at the NCC’s new
Innovative Cancer Research Center
. It will provide a dedicated recovery space for patients undergoing proton therapy, as well as their families and caregivers, to help reduce anxiety and stress and offer holistic support that extends beyond clinical treatment. The
Ralph Lauren
Center will be integrated with the NCC’s broader supportive care programs, including psychological counseling, family education, social welfare support and customized programs for patients and their families, helping ensure continuity of support throughout the treatment journey.
“Our support in the global fight against cancer has always been guided by the belief that everyone deserves access to high-quality care and the resources that can help them and their loved ones through every stage of their journey,” said Ralph Lauren, Executive Chairman and Chief Creative Officer of
Ralph Lauren Corporation
. “As our partnerships continue to grow around the world, so does our commitment to expanding access to care and support, and
The Ralph Lauren Center for Patient and Family Recovery
in
Korea
represents an important step forward in helping more patients and their loved ones navigate cancer with dignity, comfort and hope.”
Established in 2000 under the
Ministry of Health and Welfare
, the NCC serves as the nation’s central institution for cancer control, integrating research, clinical care and national programs across the continuum of cancer care, from prevention and screening to treatment, survivorship support and palliative care. As the number of cancer survivors continues to grow, with more than 2.7 million people in
Korea
living with or beyond cancer according to 2023 National Cancer Registry Statistics, the NCC is strengthening a patient-centered approach to support recovery, long-term health and well-being. Through this partnership, Ralph Lauren and the NCC will help create a safe and compassionate space that recognizes recovery as an essential part of quality cancer care.
“Cancer care should extend beyond treatment itself to helping patients return to their daily lives and improve their quality of life,” said
Han-Kwang Yang
, President of the
National Cancer Center of Korea
and Chairman of the Board of the
Korea National Cancer Center Foundation
. “For patients undergoing a longer treatment journey, such as proton therapy, it is particularly important to provide an environment that helps ease anxiety and stress throughout the treatment process and enables them to undergo care with greater comfort and support from their families. We hope the new
Ralph Lauren Center for Patient and Family Recovery
will provide a welcoming space where patients, families and caregivers can rest and access the information and support they need.”
The new
Ralph Lauren
Center is supported by Pink Pony, Ralph Lauren's global initiative in the fight against cancer.
Established in 2000, Pink Pony's mission is to help reduce disparities in cancer care by facilitating greater access to quality treatment for everyone at an earlier, more curable stage. Through annual marketing campaigns, dedicated product collections, employee volunteering and fundraising, Pink Pony supports 38 beneficiaries across 17 countries.
