More than $14,000 was raised by @properties brokers and friends on October 10 to support Cooper Roberts and his family, who are residents of Highland Park. Cooper was paralyzed during the July 4, 2022, shooting in that city and now uses a wheelchair. The fundraiser, spearheaded by brokers Ted Pickus and Susan Burklin along with Vice President of Brokerage Services Jorge Abreu, was in part designed to raise funds for an accessible home. Featuring a silent auction, the event brought together @properties brokers from throughout the North Shore and received strong support from the area business community. More than 30 local business collectively donated at least 50 items for the silent auction. The fundraiser was held at SLYCE Coal Fire Pizza in Winnetka, which discounted its costs significantly to support the effort. The locally driven event was held in the spirit of the commitment @properties has long made to supporting the needs of the individuals and the communities in which it conducts business.
