I'm proud that we've announced Airbnb.org. It started with a question: How can we help in times of need? Prioritizing a diverse team and board - we believe in supporting those disproportionately impacted by disasters serving the needs of diverse communities.

It’s an honor to give back to my Alma Mater (@NCStateDesign) w/ an endowed scholarship for students of color. So many creative voices that deserve to be promoted! If you would like to make a gift to the Marva Motley Genesis fund, you can here: lnkd.in/gSCq8zW

We stand with #BlackLivesMatter. We are donating a total of $500,000 to the @NAACP and the @Blklivesmatter Foundation in support of their fight for equality and justice, and we'll be matching employee donations to both groups. Because a world where we all belong takes all of us.
