Our mission is to connect the private and public sectors through education, innovative marketing, community events, and creative financing programs. We provide direct assistance to homeowners and businesses ready to “go solar” on a daily basis. We actively encourage the widespread use of solar and other renewable, sustainable energy sources by informing the community about how it benefits the regional economy, environment and human health. We also raise public awareness about supporting public policies that advance solar power and renewable energy. By providing leadership in renewable energy, we are able to offer information and networking opportunities to the public, public officials, and to the business community. We connect solar energy suppliers and consumers, organize workshops, and act with local, state, and federal organizations to support clean energy options. SSA’s largest program assisting the public to go solar is the “Bring Solar Home” Campaign. The campaign uses public outreach to connect potential solar adopters with the solar industry. The program works with the City of San Antonio, local lending institutions, and the local municipally-owned utility CPS Energy to provide the public with information, incentives, and financing options that make it simple and affordable to go solar. In addition, the education work done by SSA over its thirteen years of operation built the public support that facilitated the process of CPS Energy installing 46 megawatts of centralized solar and signing a contract for 400 additional megawatts of solar. In honor of SSA founder William Sinkin, CPS Energy dedicated one of its newest solar projects in his namesake. The 19.8 megawatt project, dubbed William R. Sinkin Centennial Solar Farms 1 and 2, will produce enough clean power for an estimated 2,550 average Texas homes annually.

Located on the grounds of Providence Catholic School and a stone's throw away from the Museum Reach of the San Antonio River Walk, the Najim Campus Center boasts wide porches and gracious indoor spaces. What you see today has evolved over the years while maintaining its original purpose of being a gathering site for life's memorable moments. The land on which this house stands has been a part of San Antonio's history since long before the house was built. It stands on the site made famous by Ben Milam in 1835 during the Texas Revolution. Years later, when Henry Patrick Drought married Ethel Tunstall, he built a home for his family on the site. Atlee B. Ayres & Company were hired to design a home that joined European qualities with early Texas style. The Drought Estate was complete in 1901. Mrs. Drought was a forward thinking woman who used her home as a celebratory meeting site for many groups in the city, including the San Antonio Symphony and the San Antonio Art League. The design of the main floor and porches lends itself to small private groups in the different parlors or to opening the sliding doors and having access to larger space. In 1951 the property became the home of Providence Catholic School and the Drought House was used as a residence for the sisters who ran the school. At one time there were 26 sisters living in the house. In 1995, they discontinued use of the house. Over the years, only portions of the first floor were used for various offices. The Drought House has been restored and in May 2010, it was re-christened the Najim Campus Center, in memory of Jamelia Najim, mother of Harvey E. Najim, who along with many other generous donors made the restoration possible. The first floor and the porches of the home, are once again open for entertaining and public use.
