Relocation of St. Rose COVID-19 Testing Site

COVID-19 testing has moved from the St. Rose School location to a new site located in the Parking Plaza Shopping Center off of Webster Avenue, specifically in the former Save-A-Lot location (1100 Revere Beach Parkway) next to Home Depot. 

COVID-19 testing hours will remain the same, seven days a week from 1:00-5:00 pm. All testing will be free, regardless of insurance or immigration status, and no appointments are required. 

The Parking Plaza offers plenty of public parking for people to use. This location is also accessible via public transportation:

• The 116 and 117 MBTA buses stop on Broadway @ Webster and Broadway @ Stockton. The testing site is a 10-minute walk from each bus stop. 

• The 112 MBTA bus stops at Summit Avenue @ Chelsea Soldier’s Home, which is an 11-minute walk to the testing site

Transformative Health will operate this testing site as part of the state Stop the Spread initiative. 

Celebrate National Unclaimed Property Day by Visiting Find Mass Money

State Treasurer Deborah B. Goldberg and the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators are celebrating National Unclaimed Property Day… and you should be too!

One in ten Massachusetts residents have unclaimed money including citizens like Kelly who recently discovered how easy it was to claim her money. 

“Checked my name and found money at FindMassMoney.com.” said Kelly. “Once I found money for myself, I started checking my family and friends…even work colleagues!  I found money for them too! With this ‘found’ money, we ordered take out from a local restaurant.  I didn’t have to cook, and we helped a struggling restaurant in our town.”

The Treasury is currently holding over $3.4 billion in unclaimed property. Treasurer Goldberg urges all citizens to check the comprehensive list for all amounts at www.findmassmoney.com or call our live call center at 888-344-MASS (6277).

“Take a minute on Unclaimed Property Day to check your name like Kelly,” said State Treasurer Deborah B. Goldberg. “Our team is prepared to walk you through the claims process.”

Unclaimed property includes forgotten savings and checking accounts, un-cashed checks, insurance policy proceeds, stocks, dividends, and the contents of unattended safe deposit boxes. Most accounts are considered abandoned and are turned over to the state after three years of inactivity. In 2021, Treasury processed over 113,000 claims and returned over $174 million in cash and securities to its rightful owners.

There is no time limit for a person to claim this property and, in many cases, claimants will receive interest. Searching for unclaimed money is always free by using FindMassMoney.com.
