Colombia Earthquake
On August 10, a magnitude 7.4 quake struck the Chocó province in Colombia. The earthquake was felt across an enormous area, stretching for hundreds of miles across western Colombia.Airbnb.org is partnering with Project Hope and Cenaced to provide free, emergency housing for people who have been displaced by the earthquake. Residents impacted by the earthquake can directly apply for housing if their primary home is in a mandatory evacuation zone, and we can verify your identity. You must have an Airbnb account to verify your identity, if you don’t have one you can create one here. If you have an evacuation notice or an evacuation warning, you are not currently eligible for emergency housing through Airbnb.org.
If you’d like to help provide free stays to people impacted by the earthquake, you can make a donation to Airbnb.org. 100% of donations go directly to emergency housing. If you’re an Airbnb host, you can sign up to offer discounted stays for impacted residents. Airbnb donates its host service fees to Airbnb.org for these stays and provides hosts with AirCover for each booking.
