Reference (a) announced the 2020 Active Duty fund drive supporting the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS). This year's drive is scheduled to run from 01 March 2020 through 30 April 2020. 2. Typically, we promote the Active Duty campaign supporting NMCRS through large scale kick-off and fund drive events. However, we fully understand the precautions currently being undertaken with guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control regarding Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) that discourages large group interactions. In light of these events, I am extending the end date to 30 June 2020 to give commands the time and opportunity to support the fund drive. 3. I am a sincere believer in and am committed to the mission of the NMCRS which is to serve Sailors, Marines, and their families in their time of need. 4. We will continue to monitor the situation and make adjustments to the campaign accordingly. If you have any questions or concerns please contact your organizational NMCRS coordinator. 5. Released by the Honorable Thomas B. Modly, Acting Secretary of the Navy.// BT #0001 NNNN UNCLASSIFIED//
