# Airbnb - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `airbnb.org` ## Description Airbnb.org is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that aims to unlock the power of sharing space, resources, and support in times of need. Building upon the success of Airbnb's Open Homes initiative, Airbnb.org has its own mission and board of directors dedicated to helping those affected by crises. The story of Airbnb.org began in 2012 when Hurricane Sandy struck New York City. An Airbnb host named Shell reached out and offered her place for free to evacuees. The Airbnb team worked tirelessly to make this available, and soon over 1,000 hosts opened their homes to those in need. Since then, Airbnb.org has expanded its efforts globally, partnering with organizations like Mercy Corps and the International Rescue Committee to provide housing for relief workers and support the housing needs of displaced individuals. In recent years, Airbnb.org has responded to various crises, including the Pulse nightclub shooting, the global refugee crisis, wildfires in California, the Australia bushfires, and the COVID-19 pandemic. They have also launched initiatives such as medical stays for those traveling long-distances for treatment. Now, as an independent nonprofit, Airbnb.org continues to make a significant impact. They have reached the milestone of housing 100,000 guests and have committed to providing temporary housing to 20,000 Afghan refugees worldwide. They remain dedicated to finding stays for people fleeing Ukraine, with the support of hosts and donors. To lead this important work, Airbnb.org has a dedicated board of directors, including individuals like Jennifer Bond and Joe Gebbia, who are passionate about transforming lives through the power of connection and hospitality. With its mission to provide housing and resources in times of crisis, Airbnb.org stands as an inspiring example of utilizing the shared economy to make a positive difference in the world. ## Industries - 🎗 Community and Society - 🎗 Philanthropy _(under Community and Society)_ ## Links - [twitter](https://twitter.com/airbnb) ## Logos & icons - icon _(primary)_ — PNG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/id2Tq7-5MQ/w/400/h/400/theme/dark/icon.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1781157277602) - logo _(primary)_ — PNG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/id2Tq7-5MQ/w/76/h/76/theme/dark/logo.png?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1781157277478) ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Mine Shaft | #222222 | dark | | White | #ffffff | light | | Radical Red | #ff385c | accent | ## Fonts - Airbnb Cereal VF — asset _(custom)_ ## Imagery - banner _(primary)_ — JPEG — [download](https://cdn.brandfetch.io/id2Tq7-5MQ/w/1500/h/500/ido1o-M5NP.jpeg?c=1bxid64Mup7aczewSAYMX&t=1781157277767) --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
