At least 67 people were killed and more than $3.4 billion in damage was caused when Hurricane Dorian swept through the country's hundreds of islands in October 2019.
Aribnb has offered other sabbaticals over the past year to promote the environment. For their latest offer, five people have a chance to win a chance to visit the three islands within the Bahamas that were not affected by the storm: Andros, Eleuthera and Exumas. There, the winners of the contest will work on projects for two months including coral reef restoration, pineapple farming, boating building and more, working with the Bahamas National Trust. The nonprofit manages the country's parks and works to preserve its natural habitat.
The trust's executive director, Eric Crey, says the country is "open for business" and the sabbatical is a way to "share our diverse country and the Bahamian way of life with the world."
