An amazing event!

Thanks to everyone last night who helped make the Home Sharers Trade Fair a great success - to the organizing team of Home Sharers Democratic Club led by David Jacoby, to all the volunteers, the 30+ exhibitors and the Plantinum and Gold Sponsors, to Senator Scott Wiener, Assemblymember David Chiu and Airbnb Co-founder Joe Gebbia who came to lend support and draw Raffle winners, and to all those wonderful SF Hosts who turned up on a school night to the Verdi Club to celebrate the amazing home-grown home sharing economy, a $495 million economy that turns innovations into new jobs and new revenues for our City.

After dozens of inspections, DwellWell knows that many homes are not properly protected against Carbon Monoxide.
