About

Mary’s Shelter Gulf Coast is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a safe, supportive home for homeless pregnant women and their children. Serving communities across Baldwin County and the surrounding Gulf Coast region, the organization offers transitional housing, life-skills development, and individualized guidance to help mothers build stable, independent futures.

With a residential program that extends both before and after childbirth, Mary’s Shelter is staffed 24/7 and focuses on empowering women through education, employment readiness, and parenting support. In addition to housing, the organization also operates a local thrift store that helps fund its mission while providing affordable maternity and baby essentials to the community.
