Senator Felder, NYS Comptroller Co-Sponsor Unclaimed Funds Events

Residents Given Opportunity to Find Forgotten Money

Senator Simcha Felder (Brooklyn) greeted residents from Flatbush and Midwood today as they visited his office in the hope of discovering “found money”. The Unclaimed Funds Event was co-sponsored by Senator Felder and the NYS Comptroller’s office.

“We’re happy to hold this event every year,” said the Senator. “There’s over $14 billion currently in unclaimed funds, and over $24 million was already returned by the State of New York this year. Our annual event is always worthwhile and results in a number of my constituents finding money that belongs to them. Today, we conducted more than 100 searches resulting in 20 claims.”

Next week, Senator Felder will co-sponsor a similar event from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at his Boro Park office at 4714 16^th Ave., 2^nd floor. Appointments are necessary. To reserve a spot, please call the Senator’s office at 718-253-2015.
