“A home, to me, is where your family is.”

After the Camp Fire devastated the town of Paradise in northern California, people in nearby communities signed up to provide temporary housing through Airbnb’s Open Homes program. Melissa and her family found shelter with Cinde, an Airbnb Host and Sacramento entrepreneur.

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.
