Airbnb.org responds to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, offering free temporary housing

Airbnb.org, a nonprofit dedicated to crisis housing, is actively supporting those displaced by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Over 3,600 people have already found shelter through Airbnb hosts in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.

To find more information or sign up as a host to provide temporary housing through Airbnb.org, people can visit the official Airbnb.org website. There, individuals can register to volunteer their homes or make donations. Airbnb will match donations 100% until Nov. 1. The platform also provides guidance on how to offer help and support to evacuees during crises, like Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Additionally, residents in need of housing can connect with local 211 centers or nonprofit partners listed on the website.

Airbnb.org is a nonprofit organization affiliated with Airbnb. It focuses on providing temporary housing during crises, such as natural disasters or refugee situations. While it operates separately from Airbnb’s for-profit business, it uses the same platform to connect people in need of shelter with hosts, who can offer free or discounted stays.
