Yokosuka Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, or NMCRS, helps Yokosuka-area clients improve personal financial skills and encourages individual financial responsibility through programs like Budget for Baby, Quick Assist Loans, Financial Assistance, and Visiting Nurses.
In 2023 alone, NMCRS Yokosuka provided $1.5 million in financial assistance to Yokosuka servicemembers and their families and brought in more than $45,000 in sales from the NMCRS Thrift Shop.
NMCRS services are available for military personnel and their family members transferring in or out of Yokosuka as the non-profit is able to provide financial assistance to help pay Navy Lodge, Navy Gateway Inns & Suites, or hotels authorized for use with an authorized certificate non-availability for personnel eligible for Temporary Lodging Allowance. NMCRS can also help offset the cost of PCS-related pet transportation to or from overseas locations with an interest-free loan.
