Hurricane Katrina has left hundreds of thousands of people homeless. But thousands of people throughout the region are stepping up to offer shelter to those in need. If you have a spare room, an extra bed, or even a decent couch, please consider offering that space to hurricane victims who desperately need a safe place to wait out the storm.
Housing in the Southeast is best. By far the greatest need for housing is within several hundred miles of the affected region. If you live elsewhere, please ask anyone you know in the area to post a housing offer, in addition to posting your own.
Only list your own housing. Please don't offer lodging that's not actually yours to offer!
Offers should be free. All housing offered on this site must be free of charge.
Be smart. We can make no guarantees about the people who contact you. Please use common sense.
Hurricane survivors need work too. If, in addition to housing, you can connect hurricane survivors with temporary work, please note that in your description.
