Young people from Worcester are heading to the England-Ghana match — part of our partnership with @Airbnb that’s helping Massachusetts kids experience the World Cup for free.
Seeing the excitement on their faces has been one of the best parts of hosting this tournament ⚽️
Today I joined @MassGovernor in my home state to send off 100 kids from local Boys & Girls Clubs to watch Ghana v. England live. Proud that @Airbnb helped make this happen.
@pmarca Because of Airbnb, I talk with city officials and housing experts all the time. Whatever the online discourse says, this book has meaningfully influenced a lot of people who actually have the power to build

Model capabilities are advancing fast. The question now is how to apply them to products people love - ones that get them into the world, connecting with real people and places. No one does this better than @bchesky. I've known Brian for years, and the chance to build together was one I couldn't pass up.

Michelle, @BChesky, and I launched the Voyager Scholarship at the @ObamaFoundation to provide the next generation of leaders with the tools they need to succeed and make an impact on their communities. Today we're thrilled to welcome the newest class of Obama-Chesky Voyagers.
NYC’s short-term rental crackdown is failing in its goal to improve housing - and New Yorkers are paying the price.
Two years in, the law hasn’t made housing more affordable. Instead, it’s made it harder for residents to make ends meet and stripped small businesses of tourism dollars.
It’s time for reform that gives homeowners the right to host, and travelers more affordable options across all five boroughs.
https://t.co/qvXbGBRHSb has provided free emergency housing to 23,000+ people displaced by the LA wildfires. Now, we're deepening our support for LA’s recovery, including $16M to @HabitatLA from https://t.co/qvXbGBRHSb and $1M to local orgs helping LA rebuild.

I grew up in L.A. and on those beaches. Family and friends are all safe, but I'm shocked by the news of loss for them and so many. The fires are my professional focus, but personal as well.
For L.A., the team @Airbnb announces:

When we launched the Voyager Scholarship at the @ObamaFoundation in 2022, we were excited to see what young people would do with the right support. And now we know! Our first two cohorts of scholarship recipients have shown incredible passion, curiosity, and initiative while working hard across their college campuses.
Today we’re excited to welcome our third cohort of Voyagers. They make me more hopeful than ever that our future is in good hands. Michelle, @Bchesky, and I are rooting for you.
