Residents of Bellingham, does anyone know of any promotions or help going around (food/goods/assistance) for furloughed/unpaid government workers during the shutdown? If so, please list them here so that I can share them!

"Hoagland Pharmacy would like to support the needs of Federal employees during the government shutdown. We are offering an interest free charge account with a limit of $500 for any Federal employee experiencing financial hardship during the shutdown. This interest free charge account may be used to charge prescription copays or OTC products. Once the shutdown is over and you are receiving wages again, we ask that the account be paid within 90 days. If your family has high copays and you need a charge account with a limit over $500, we will review these on a case by case basis. To open the interest free charge account, proof of Federal employment must be presented. If you have any questions, please call our Bookkeeping Department at (360) 685-5002."
