Laverne Cox Partners with Airbnb to Host Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience

The proceeds raised will go to the Trans Wellness Center in Los Angeles.

Yesterday, Laverne Cox took to Instagram to announce that she has teamed up with Airbnb for Pride month and will be offering six people the chance to have an empowering Social Impact Experience alongside her. All proceeds collected will go to the newly opened 3,000-square-foot Trans Wellness Center in Los Angeles, a nonprofit organization close to Cox's heart.

The Experience is part of a program Airbnb started in 2016 which gave travelers a chance to explore destinations and try out activities arranged and led by local experts. (Airbnb currently offers nearly 50 Experiences geared to the LGBTQ traveler, including a tour of San Francisco's Castro neighborhood, an LGBT history walk through Amsterdam, and "Into Queer Havana" in Cuba.)

Guests on Cox's Experience will be treated to a self-esteem and wellness-building day that includes a meditation session and shopping at her favorite L.A. thrift store for clothes that match their gender identities. Finally, guests will end the day with a photoshoot with Laverne and clients of the Center.

The booking will go live tomorrow, Thursday June 14, and is open to four guests at $250. Two additional spots on the experience are reserved for Trans Wellness Center members.
