Airbnb is partnering with GiveIndia to raise funds for underprivileged sections of the society who are directly impacted by COVID19 crisis. The daily wage earners and migrant labourers have been significantly impacted and some are even stranded miles away from their loved ones. Many such families across the country desperately need your help with food and essentials like: rice, daal, salt, oil, soap and more to support themselves and their loved ones.

On 11 March, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. To combat the coronavirus and flatten the curve the government has taken many swift actions to slow the spread of COVID-19, including an imperative lockdown. However, the underprivileged communities in our country are being overwhelmed by the scale and impact of this crisis, even more so the large section of the nation that has little or no access to the required essentials in the unprecedented circumstances.

In these difficult times we are seeking your support as Airbnb community members to support this fundraising initiative and thus create an impact that can help the marginalised and vulnerable communities. Your support and contribution will give these families hope and strength to fight this crisis together. We must emerge stronger, together.
