TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Airbnb steps up and offers free housing to Ukrainian refugees
What’s happening over in Ukraine and Russia is absolutely heartbreaking. There is nothing “good” about the war itself. But in between the headlines, photos, and footage there are a few bright spots shining through of people helping the innocent everyday civilians in Ukraine.
Airbnb recently announced they will be offering free housing for 100,000 Ukrainian refugees in Eastern Europe. This will give the people a place to stay for at least a few weeks. Which is an amazing gesture from the company.
Let’s hope all this conflict and suffering ends soon, but in the meantime it’s nice to see people stepping up to help out.
