Celebrating 9 years of the Community Center

[Emilie]

Hello everyone, 

This year marks the ninth anniversary of the Community Center, and we’re excited to celebrate with all of you! 🎂

Whether you’ve been a part of our community since the beginning or joined recently, thank you for helping shape the Community Center.  

Together, we’ve shared joyful news, supported one another during challenging times, and met wonderful people from around the world. We’ve grown from just over 2,000 hosts in November 2015 to more than 1.8 million today. Along the way, we’ve adapted to changes in both the Airbnb platform and the world. And we’ve come together for three Sustainability Festivals, five  Hospitality Festivals, and 8 end-of-year  celebrations.

We’d love to hear about some of your favourite Community Center moments from the past nine years. It could be a newfound friendship, a heartwarming experience with a fellow host, or even a silly joke that has stuck with you.

We’re looking forward to another fantastic year with you. Here’s to more memorable moments, thoughtful discussions, and meaningful connections! ✨

Once again, thank you for everything you do.

—Your Community team

Congratulations to nine years of facilitating communication, exchange and community.  These are immensely important values for the Host Community and the work that this team has put into promoting these values is heroic and much appreciated.  I am grateful for all that the Community Center and the Managers have achieved over these years.  Thank you.

Congratulations on 9 years of the Community Center. Thank you for keeping this community going. My favourite part is sharing my knowledge about how host can take steps to become more sustainable in the way they set up their homes and help guests to reduce the emissions  and waste they create.  It has been great to see the introduction of video content to help bring topics to life and better understand the hosts behind the message. Thank you for facilitating this.
