So I am an avid user and fan of AirBnb. I am also a volunteer for the Southeastern council of Medshare International. Improving the quality of life of people and our planet. Medshare is a wonderful organization that repurposes medical supples for medical mission trips, safety net clinics and shipments of medical supplies to countries in need.

Our upcoming event, Kaleidoscope will transport you to three regions around the world where we serve to improve healthcare - Africa, Asia and Latin America. Our global celebration will feature international cuisine from Affairs to Remember, open bar (provided by United Distributors), live entertainment, and a silent auction.
Here’s some local news coverage highlighting our work from our Headquarters in Decatur, GA. Also, here’s a video we produced in partnership with Halyard Health, headquartered here in Alpharetta, which was featured at last year’s event. Current and historic sponsors include:
We are reaching out to the AirBnb hosts to see if anyone would be willing to donate a weekend of their vacation rental to a very good cause. We are also excited to share that we also have a disaster relief initiative. We played a large roll in relief efforts most recently in Haiti, Nepal, and Western Africa (Ebola.)
Happy to supply more info at your request.
