Treasurer Michael Frerichs had the honor to speak at the American Legion Annual State Convention. It was a wonderful moment to reflect on good news from the past couple of months—veterans were centered at the heart of it. The Treasurer shared stories of returning a Purple Heart to its rightful owner, visiting the Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial, and returning more than $500,000 in two life insurance policies to a veteran widower whose late wife was also a veteran. Thank you to The American Legion for allowing the State Treasurer’s Office to help honor our veterans. #purpleheart | #operationpurpleheart | #veterans | #military

June was National Homeownership Month, and The State Treasurer’s Office was able to celebrate in a very special way. The office awarded over $33,000 in unclaimed property to Neighborhood Housing Services, a nonprofit that believes individuals are empowered through homeownership. NHS of Chicago recognizes the impact of race, income, and social status on a person’s housing security. Knowing homeownership is a foundation in community development, their teams work to stabilize and revitalize low and moderate-income communities throughout the greater Chicagoland area and suburbs. Since 2015, the Treasurer’s Office has returned over $2 billion in assets back to Illinois residents. To learn more about this program, visit https://bit.ly/4aSzrEG
