Last Chance for Gulf Shores Nonprofits to Secure Funding!

February 2, 2026 2 min read

Attention, Gulf Shores community! If you’re part of a nonprofit organization making a difference in our area, now is the time to act. The City of Gulf Shores is currently accepting applications for its Nonprofit Grants Program, but the window is closing soon, with submissions due by February 15. As reported by Baybusinessnews, this program aims to provide crucial funding for essential services that directly benefit our residents.

Nonprofits can apply for up to $2,000 per cycle, with a cap of $4,000 available throughout the calendar year. The great news is that your organization doesn’t have to be based in Gulf Shores, but it must offer direct services to our community members. This is a fantastic opportunity to secure resources for projects, events, or other essential needs that enhance the well-being of our residents.

However, it’s important to note that the funds cannot be used for salaries, debt repayment, general operational costs, or any political activities. A dedicated Grant Review Committee will evaluate all submissions, focusing on those organizations that demonstrate a strong local impact and efficient resource management.

So, if your organization fits the bill, don’t wait! Gather your application materials and make sure to submit them before the February 15 deadline. Let’s work together to strengthen our Gulf Shores community through the incredible services our nonprofits provide!
