Hi Smiles Davis,

Thanks for being a part of Open Homes.

So much has happened in the last year. Since we launched, hosts have welcomed over 15,000 people who need a place to call home. These are people who’ve faced unexpected life transitions because of conflict, natural disasters, or access to critical medical care.

We’ve seen an outpouring of generosity from hosts like you. That’s why we’re adding more ways for you to participate in Open Homes, while celebrating the impact hosts have made.

Medical stays

A new way to help

Now, you can play an important role in someone’s road to recovery. Open Homes lets you offer free, temporary housing to people traveling to access critical medical treatment or respite.

These stays are arranged by nonprofits who we partner with, like Make-A-Wish and Fisher House Foundation. Their patients include military families traveling to medical centers for critical care or families who need to decompress after their battle with serious illness.

Join the thousands of hosts who are offering their extra space for medical stays.

Open Homes by the numbers

Thanks to hosts like you, our community has made quite an impact.

These stays happen all over the States, including places like New York, Atlanta, North Carolina, Boise, and even Hawaii.

Disasters can strike anywhere in the world. Hosts have volunteered to open their home to evacuees and relief workers during hurricanes, earthquakes, and even wildfires.

Hosts and guests often form strong connections, even when they’re from opposite sides of the world. From Mali to Belgium, or Syria to Vancouver—these bonds help make the world a smaller place.
