Airbnb is working with 211 LA to provide free, temporary housing for people who have been impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires, the company said.

As tens of thousands seek shelter from the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles, the short-term rental site Airbnb has made free rooms available to evacuees and major hotels are extending discounted rates to displaced residents.

As multiple fires continue to spread through Los Angeles, Airbnb will offer free temporary housing for displaced residents.

Airbnb will work with 211 LA to identify residents in need of temporary housing and connect them to accommodations offered through Airbnb.org, the company’s non-profit arm which provides free stays through funds from the company and hosts who offer up their homes during disaster situations.

In response to the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, Airbnb has partnered with local nonprofit 211 LA to offer temporary free housing to displaced residents. The initiative is a lifeline for those forced to evacuate due to rapidly spreading fires consuming homes and neighborhoods.
