The Chicago Chapter of the Society of Industrial & Office Realtors (SIOR) is pleased to report that the members of the SIOR Chicago Chapter have donated a total of $15,000 to make 28 Trunk Scholarships possible as part of the Ada S. McKinley College-Bound Trunk Scholarship program in 2021. The scholarships are provided to students typically from the West and South sides of Chicago; each scholarship winner is selected based on an essay contest and a demonstration of financial need.
2021 marks the 11th year of the Chapter’s support of this worthwhile charitable initiative. Each trunk is valued at $500, and includes such living and learning essentials college-bound honorees need to begin their journey as new laptops, earbuds, backpacks, dorm room essentials, school supplies, and more.
An upswelling of commercial real estate community support
The following are members and companies that donated trunks toward this effort in 2021: Akrete Communications; Arco Murray; Bridge Development; CenterPoint Properties; Clayco; CRG Integrated Real Estate Solutions; Conor Commercial; Dermody Properties; Duke Realty; Entre Commercial Realty; Harris Architects; IDI Logistics; Krusinski Construction; Meridian Design Build; ML Realty Partners; Newmark; TMG; Venture One Real Estate; Sam Badger, SIOR; Lynn Reich, SIOR, CCIM; Donald & Cecile Schoenheider; Elise Couston, SIOR; Joyce Slone, SIOR, CCIM; Thomas Boyle, SIOR; Adam Marshall, SIOR; Ron Behm, SIOR; as well as a donation from the SIOR Chicago Chapter itself.
