Texans Help Evacuees with Airbnb
We love to share at StarHill Farms.
We believe it's good for the soul. And in response to recent events, we've started sharing by participating in the Airbnb Disaster Response initiative that houses Hurricane evacuees for free.
And, we are completely booked.
Areas where you can participate in Airbnb the program.
While so many of us are fortunate to be safe and dry, there are several people needing shelter. This initiative continues until Sept. 25th and anyone can join who has extra space and a desire to share.
We can vouch for it being a worthwhile experience, one that is humbling and makes you proud to be a Texan. These are real people with real stories who need real help.
Here are the resources we used to understand the initiative and participate:

As Irma approaches, this effort is available there as well. Please forward this info to anyone you know in its path around Florida who may be able to connect more people to shelter.
