From the start, we’ve believed in the power of stable housing for every family. This is why we’re proud to celebrate an incredible milestone: 1 million families empowered through our housing counseling! But our work is far from done. Together, let’s pave the way for more families to achieve housing stability and build wealth.

Congratulations to our Senior Vice President of Economic Initiatives Laura V. Arce for joining Airbnb’s Housing Council! Laura’s experience will be a valuable asset as she collaborates with industry leaders to help Airbnb partner with communities to address housing challenges. Homeownership is the single greatest driver of wealth in this country, and we’ve seen firsthand how empowering Latino families with the tools to achieve it can foster lasting financial resilience. Joining the Airbnb Housing Council is an incredible opportunity to further our shared goal of expanding access to affordable homeownership, especially for underserved communities. We look forward to working with colleagues and partners to create more equitable housing opportunities for families nationwide.

According to our Vice President of the Latino Vote Initiative, Clarissa Martínez de Castro, "The mainstream exit polls got Hispanic candidate support wrong, and that is a recurring sampling issue."

Did you know? Macario García was the first Mexican American to be awarded the Medal of Honor, the country’s highest military decoration. Born to Mexican farmworkers in Texas, he was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1942. Wounded during the invasion of Normandy, he continued to serve his country with courage and resilience. After returning home, he was denied service at a Texas café, sparking national outrage over the discrimination faced by Latinos. Macario’s is one of many powerful Latino stories included in the high school lesson plans we created with The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. As we honor Veterans Day, let’s also pay tribute to heroes like Macario by ensuring that #LatinoHistory is included in U.S. history books across the country.
