How Hosts in NYC inspired a movement to provide emergency stays in times of crisis | Airbnb.org

“New York is a town that will never go down… the people here will always bond together”
When Superstorm Sandy hit in 2012, a group of Hosts came together to offer space for free to their neighbors, and a movement was born. These Hosts are the inspiration for Airbnb.org.
In December 2020, the Airbnb Open Homes program transitioned to Airbnb.org. Airbnb.org is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to facilitating emergency stays for people in large-scale crises around the world. Your donation makes a difference. Donate at airbnb.org.
