Hey hosts, as we have all experienced these mass cancellations with no help for hosts, it got me thinking that the we can only count on ourselves as a community. Therefor I thought maybe a fund could be set up to assist hosts in desperate times of need. I don't mean a bad week of hosting, or a bad financial decision by a host like a default on a remodeling loan. I mean like this current situation, one completely out of control.
The funds could be used to pay someone's electric bill or help with the house they might lose or delivery of groceries, etc. This a big idea with a lot of holes but I figured I'd post this to see if anyone had opinions or a desire to go down this rabbit hole. Short term it would be individual donations, long term it maybe a coalition of hosts big enough to express our concerns. I'm not talking about a union but just one united big voice, helping ourselves as hosts.
