Union County featured in SC Treasurer's Office social media posts
Union County is the featured location in this week’s Find Your Money Monday posts on the SC Treasurer’s Office social media. His office has more than $2.8 million in unclaimed funds that belong to people in Union County. Loftis said, “An important part of our work at the State Treasurer’s Office is returning unclaimed property to its rightful owners, and it’s probably one of the most enjoyable parts of my job as your State Treasurer. We know this money can make a meaningful impact on our citizens, local businesses, churches, schools, and charities.”
Statewide, the office has more than $750 million in unclaimed property. Millions are transferred to the program each year by companies that cannot locate the owners. Click on the photo above for a few Union County residents who have funds at the State Treasurer’s Office.
It’s easy to claim your funds on the State Treasurer’s website. Examples of the types of property covered by the program include dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, unclaimed insurance proceeds and forgotten utility deposits. The State Treasurer's Office serves as custodian of unclaimed funds and holds them until claimed by the rightful owners.
Visit the State Treasurer's Office website at treasurer.sc.gov to see if there is any unclaimed property for you or your family.
