Airbnb.org has helped more than 135,000 people fleeing the war find places to stay.

It can take years for a community to fully recover from a major disaster. Airbnb.org helps fund stays for relief workers who are doing critical work to rebuild communities.

Creating a world rooted in belonging

Airbnb.org envisions a world in which anyone can find a welcoming place to stay in times of crisis. To make this vision a reality for all, Airbnb.org created a set of commitments on diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility.
