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.�
