Giving Central New York kids a good start for the school year! The 9th Annual Back to School event organized by Mothers & Children in Crisis (MCC) provides back to school supplies and health and wellness materials to the children of families in the Problem-Solving Court system. Over 80 kids from 30+ families served by MCC will now have a good start to the 2024-2025 academic year thanks to the area businesses and agencies that came together to support this event. Every child received a backpack of school supplies, bag of clothes, wellness necessities, and a pair of back-to-school shoes. Additionally, each family received a $50 grocery gift card. We were there with information on our youth and RoundUp Savings account, as well as answering other financial questions. #thesummitfcu #Elevatingtheordinary #banking #creditunion #community #events #backtoschool #school #schoolsupplies #cny #syracuseny

Don't "stop, drop, and roll" just yet, here are three easy tips to navigate a financial emergency: 1. Leverage Community Assistance Programs Many local community programs provide emergency financial assistance for necessities like rent, utilities, and food. Research local non-profits, religious organizations, and government programs that offer emergency assistance. 2. Utilize Health Savings Accounts (HSA) for Qualified Expenses An HSA can cover a wide range of medical expenses, reducing out-of-pocket costs during emergencies. If you have an HSA, funds can be used anytime for qualified expenses. Review eligible expenses and keep receipts for any medical-related emergency costs. 3. Sell Unused Gift Cards You may be hoarding unused gift cards that can be sold for cash online. Sell them on reputable websites like Card Cash or Raise for quick cash. For support, education, and more, follow us for expert tips. #financialtips #Claritydebtresolution #Debtrelief

I always wondered: what happens to unused gift cards? It should be a bonanza to companies that, for example, have 20% or more of gift cards unused (free money!) Then is article came out. Maybe nonprofits should ask donors to send in their unwanted/unused/partially-unused cards to our ministries... but how do we value them: gift-in-kind or the cash value of the balance?

Tonight, as I was thinking about holiday gifts and the convenience of giving gift cards, I started wondering—what happens to the money left on those unused cards? You know, the ones that end up forgotten in a drawer or the small balances we never quite spend. I did some digging and found out that companies in the U.S. recoup around $3 billion every year from these forgotten or partially spent gift cards. That’s a staggering amount of money just sitting there. Some of it, yes, goes to states through escheatment laws (where unclaimed property like gift card balances reverts to the state), but a significant chunk still goes back to the companies themselves. Then, a thought hit me—what if, instead of going back to companies, those billions went toward something bigger? Imagine the impact of directing that money to government programs and public services: Education: That $3 billion could provide scholarships, improve school facilities, and give kids the resources they need to thrive. Healthcare: Those unused dollars could go to public health initiatives, making mental health services more accessible or helping reduce the cost of critical medications. Infrastructure: Picture safer roads, repaired bridges, or expanded public transportation systems, funded by something as simple as unspent gift cards. Social Services: The funds could bolster support for low-income families, veterans, and the elderly—lifting people up in ways that matter. It’s amazing to think that the dollars left on a forgotten gift card could add up to something so powerful. If those unused balances were consistently funneled into government programs, they could create real, lasting benefits in our communities.

Paul Collins of The Hussey Team is here to talk all about gift funds. • When you're purchasing a home, you need money upfront. There are minimum down payments required, depending on the loan type. You will also typically need to pay some taxes, insurance, title fees, etc. • If you receive a gift for these funds, you can use this gift for down payment and/or closing costs. • We always suggest that the gift giver (donor) should give the gift funds directly to the title company. This reduces paperwork by eliminating the need to source the gift funds through both the donor's and recipient's bank statements. • Another type of gift is a gift of equity. If you are purchasing a home from a family member, they can gift you equity they have in the house. For example, if the sale price is $300,000, and the seller has a loan payoff of $100,000, that means they have $200,000 in equity. They can gift down payment and closing costs from that equity. • Closing costs can be a barrier to homeownership for many. If you have family willing to give a gift, this is a great way to help you get into homeownership. • It is important to note that gift funds must always be GIFTS and never LOANS. If you have questions for us, hit us up on the Hussey Hotline at (484) 353-6141! (CALL OR TEXT!) https://lnkd.in/eiipn7EJ
