Do You Have Unclaimed Money?

Published

on

New City, NY – The County of Rockland and County Executive Ed Day are pleased to announce a series of five unclaimed fund events happening in each town across the county allowing residents to check and see if they have unclaimed funds.

The Office of the New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli reports there is $18.4 billion in lost money across the state with his office returning $1.5 million to those filing claims daily. The County of Rockland encourages residents to attend and submit new claims or check on existing claims.

“This is something I’ve personally shared on social media many times because occasionally, after that reminder, at least one person out there ends up finding a few extra bucks they would never have known about,” said County Executive Ed Day. “Where does it come from? Abandoned bank accounts, insurance companies, courts, and more. We urge our residents who are unsure to swing by one of the events to check if they have unclaimed funds.”

The events scheduled are:

May is traditionally the month when nurses are recognized worldwide, in part because May 12 is the birthday of Florence Nightingale. She professionalized nursing roles for women and is known as the founder of modern nursing.

In celebration of National Nurses Month, Rockland County Legislature Vice Chair Dr. Aney Paul, a longtime nurse herself, presented the Distinguished Service Award— the Legislature’s highest honor— to three exceptional nurses: Glenn Albin, Dr. Gaelle Duvivier, and Mary Laiju Shine Kelanthara. These honorees were recognized for their professional excellence and dedicated community service.

  • Glenn Albin transitioned from accounting to healthcare, serving as a paramedic and emergency room nurse for over four decades. He mentors new nurses and teaches advanced life support, while actively participating in the Knights of Columbus and South Orangetown Ambulance Corps.

  • Dr. Gaelle Duvivier, a Certified Nurse Midwife and educator, works with New York Presbyterian and SUNY Rockland. She advocates for women’s health, leads health fairs, and researches ways to improve breastfeeding and reduce health disparities.

  • Mary Laiju Shine Kelanthara, with 28 years of nursing experience, serves as an Infection Control Nurse at HVDDSO. She’s also a passionate volunteer, fundraiser, church educator, and South Indian TV actress.

Dr. Paul praised the honorees for making “a positive difference every day” in the lives of Rockland County residents.
