Emergencybnb was a website that aimed at helping vulnerable segments in society find free temporary lodging offered by their neighbors. A test version of the website was published in March 2016, with a catchphrase that read: "Host a refugee or a victim of domestic violence". Due to low traction at its infancy stage, the founder, a Harvard University graduate,^[1] resorted to listing his own Washington, D.C. apartment on Airbnb and reimbursed the guests in cash upon arrival.^[2] The website has gained media attention and was featured in a number of news portals.

EmergencyBnB has partnered with various organizations helping refugees, domestic violence victims, and trafficking victims around the world.^[3]

CNN referred to Emergencybnb as "An army of people who keep their homes and hearts open in case another person needs to walk through".^[4]
