From Funnel Cakes to Found Funds
There is a long to-do list at The Great New York State Fair. Part of my day included returning over $50,000 in unclaimed funds to organizations in Central New York, including non-profits, that will support their important efforts.
Make sure to stop by the Office of Unclaimed Fund's booth in the Center for Progress to see if you have money owed to you or click on the button below.

Federal Employees in New York State
According to the U.S. Bureaus of Labor Statistics and Economic Analysis, there were more than 116,000 federal civilian employees working in New York in 2024, earning $11.2 billion in wages. Employment has decreased significantly since 2000, when there were more than 147,000 federal government employees working in New York, and is likely to decrease in 2025 as a result of federal actions to downsize the federal workforce.
