NEW ORLEANS — The Unclaimed Property Annual Mall Show will take place this Saturday at Lakeside Shopping Center in Metairie.

Louisiana State Treasurer John M. Schroder and his staff will be there from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. in the center court, helping people search for their unclaimed property.

“With more than $1 billion in unclaimed property in our system, and nearly $300 million of that from the Greater New Orleans area alone, we have a lot of work to do at this year’s event,” says Louisiana Treasurer John M. Schroder. “We helped return more than $420,000 in 2022, and I have high hopes that we can break that record this year. This is your money, Louisiana, and we want to return it to you.”
