At the Harry Tompson Center within the Rebuild Center, a collaborative shelter supports over 200 individuals every single day. Working alongside partners Lantern Light Ministries and Depaul USA they provide essential dignity and care to those experiencing homelessness.

Now, their impact is about to grow.

Together with Solar Alternatives, Inc. we are installing a massive 42.53 kW rooftop solar array that will generate over 51,000 kWh of clean electricity annually. This isn’t just about green energy; it’s about maximizing resources.

Through a unique shared-benefit model, the energy savings from this single system will support operations for all three nonprofits under one roof. By offsetting roughly 40% of the building’s usage, we’re freeing up critical funds to expand services, hire more staff and support more neighbors in need.

When we power a collaborative space, we multiply the good.

This project is powered by supporters like you. Your donation directly funds the panels that will lower bills for these three essential organizations for decades.

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Solar Alternatives, a leading New Orleans installer, to bring solar power to the Harry Tompson Center.

While Everybody Solar provides the funding and mission focus, Solar Alternatives, Inc. brings its deep local expertise and installation prowess to the table.

We are ensuring that this 42.53 kW system is built to last, withstand the Gulf Coast weather, and perform at its peak for decades.

This collaboration is about more than just mounting panels. It’s about combining forces to ensure that Harry Tompson Center, Lantern Light Ministry and Depaul USA can operate with lower overhead and greater stability.

Thank you, Solar Alternatives, for helping us power compassion in New Orleans!

Hurricane season is just 10 days away - is your home ready?
Take a few minutes today to trim trees, refresh your emergency kit, review your insurance, and make a family evacuation plan. And don't forget your power plan — solar + battery backup keeps the lights on (and the fridge cold) when the grid goes down.
A little prep now can save a lot of stress later. 👉 What's the #1 item on YOUR hurricane prep list?
