IL State Treasurer Visits Homewood
Illinois State Treasurer Dan Rutherford stopped by village hall last Friday to promote awareness of the statewide Cash Dash program.
While many of us were busy stuck in traffic or shoveling driveways last Friday, Illinois State Treasurer Dan Rutherford was at promoting the statewide unclaimed property awareness program.
According to Rutherford, there has been a major increase in the success of the Unclaimed Property Division’s (UPD) program, Cash Dash, last year. The program intends to reunite owners with unclaimed property.
Currently, the UPD has $1.5 billion in cash, plus contents from Illinois bank safety deposit boxes that have been abandoned for at least five years, according to a press release.
