City of Gulf Shores: Application Deadline for the Spring Cycle of our 2026 Nonprofit Grants Program is Sunday, February 15
The application deadline for the 2026 spring cycle of our Nonprofit Grants Program is this Sunday, February 15! This initiative provides funding to nonprofit organizations that deliver essential services and programs benefiting Gulf Shores residents, reinforcing the City’s commitment to meeting community needs and creating meaningful local impact.
The program offers two funding cycles each year—Spring and Fall. Eligible nonprofits may receive up to $2,000 per cycle, with a maximum of $4,000 per calendar year. Organizations do not need to be physically located in Gulf Shores, but must provide direct services to residents. Funds may be used for projects, events, or essential resources, but cannot be applied toward salaries, debt service, operational costs, or political lobbying.
If your organization is working to make a difference in Gulf Shores, we encourage you to apply! Submissions will be reviewed by the City’s Grant Review Committee, prioritizing organizations that demonstrate significant local impact and efficient use of resources.
