Ice Bucket Challenge: Marc Realty Residential and Baum Realty

Chicago Other
Placeholder

Your Chicago reporter nominated Marc Realty Residential's David Ruttenberg for the Ice Bucket Challenge to strike out ALS, and MRR stepped up in a big way. In addition to generously donating $1,000 to the cause (!!), David, Andy Ahitow, and Justin Elliott sent in this video of themselves completing the challenge. Their nominees: Atlas Real Estate Partners' Arvind Chary; Dream Town's Colin Hebson; South Street Capital's Matt Garrison; JDI Realty's Jeff Aeder; CAF Construction Group's Adam Walz; LG Development Group's Brian Goldberg; and Marc Realty's Jerry Nudo, Larry Weiner, Elliot Weiner, and Stephen Friedman. You all have 24 hours to send marissa.oberlander@bisnow.com a video of yourself completing the challenge (dumping a bucket of ice water on your head) and/or donate to the ALS Association. We'll post everyone's videos here. Some pointers:

  • If you're not YouTube inclined, just email the video to marissa.oberlander@bisnow.com and we'll take care of the rest.
  • We suggest nominating three commercial real estate folks outside of your firm to spread the love.
  • We'll help notify the nominees to ensure they're aware and their ice makers are full.
  • Good luck to all. Let's #StrikeOutALS!

Here's another awesome CRE Ice Bucket Challenge video from Baum Realty Group's Mike Demetriou. He raised the stakes by allowing each Baum employee that donated $25 to dump ice water on his head, raising a tidy sum. Mike nominates his coworkers: Nicole Cardot and David Baum. We have our eyes on you two. Follow the instructions above and send your videos to marissa.oberlander@bisnow.com!
