It's a pretty good program and has helped many employees since it was improved several years back.

Walgreens has a benefit fund that employees can use when they are in need. It was a nice program set up long ago when the company was run by a Walgreen. Under the current regime, almost all of the employees could use this fund. They frequently cut pay in subtle (and sometimes overt) ways with very little notice causing financial hardship for the staff. Rent payments don't go down when your paycheck suddenly shrinks.
