Ralph Lauren has revealed 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 in Goyang, South Korea, according to reports in WWD.

The center, set to open in 2028, will provide a dedicated recovery environment for cancer patients and their families and caregivers, as the number of cancer survivors in South Korea continues to grow.

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 National Cancer Center Foundation.

Ralph Lauren's support for cancer care in South Korea dates back to 2012, and the new center represents the company's commitment to expanding access to quality cancer care in communities around the world.
