CHICAGO (April 30, 2013) – In an effort to support nonprofits and serve communities, Auctions by ATG pledges to donate, through Investing In Communities (IIC), at least 20 percent of any commission it receives from a property seller to the nonprofit of that seller’s choice.

 If the seller who brings Auctions by ATG a property to auction wants to participate in an IIC related donation from Auctions by ATG, they can now do so and reap additional, social benefits from working with Auctions by ATG.

 “Becoming a sponsor of IIC allows Auctions by ATG to provide our clients with a socially responsible way of doing business,” said D

Diana M. Peterson, executive vice president of Chicago-based Auctions by ATG. “Giving back to communities is a priority to us as well as many of our clients.  We are excited to now offer our clients a unique opportunity to help us support the causes they care about.

“They get top dollar for their property and at the same time increase their positive social impact, generating goodwill and advancing corporate social responsibility.”

 Auctions by ATG clients will be able to participate in the IIC program beginning with Auctions by ATG’s next commercial real estate auction scheduled for May 31, 2013.
