Thousands of people in Australia are being urged to flee their homes as bushfires ravage huge swaths
Thousands of people in Australia are being urged to flee their homes as bushfires ravage huge swaths of the country.
Airbnb is offering free emergency accommodation for people displaced by the fires and for those helping with relief efforts in the affected states of New South Wales and Victoria.
The devastation left in the wake of the fires is unparalleled, and they're still burning. Nineteen people have died. 1,365 homes in NSW have been consumed by the fires. 3.5 percent of Victoria has been burned and over 11 million acres have been destroyed.
Authorities in Victoria sent 250,000 texts to people in bushfire-affected areas asking them evacuate. And in NSW, people in a 14,000 square kilometre area have been implored to leave the area overnight. Hundreds of people were unable to evacuate after being stranded by fires and are now being rescued by sea and air.
If you have been evacuated from your home or are assisting with recovery efforts, Airbnb is offering free, temporary accommodation between Jan. 2 and Jan. 16. using its established Open Homes platform.
If you are in Victoria, click here to search and apply for Airbnb emergency housing. If you are in NSW, click here to do so.
You can offer any extra space in your home to people affected by the bushfires and relief workers.
Airbnb needs people who have housing available from Jan. 1 to Jan. 16 2020.
Per Airbnb, you'll need to provide: "A spare room or apartment, a comfortable bed, basic amenities and toiletries, availability for 2 or more days in a row."
If you're in NSW, click here and scroll down to the section which reads 'Offer emergency housing in New South Wales'. If you're in Victoria, click here and scroll down to the 'offer' section.
If you don't already have an Airbnb account, you will need to set one up in order to access or offer emergency housing — it's quick to do so. After searching for accommodation, you'll need to message a host to request to stay.
