Websites for Good by Green Closet Creative

Eligible DCNP members can apply for a free website up to $10,000.

We partner with Green Closet Creative on this annual opportunity for a DCNP member to receive a free website up to $10,000. If there is an unusually large new website project, the $10,000 will go toward the total cost of the website. Thanks to this generous in-kind grant from Green Closet Creative, one organization can enhance their digital presence, making it easier to connect with their community, donors, and stakeholders.

Eligible applicants include any DCNP member nonprofit or governmental organization providing direct services or benefits to DeKalb County residents, with a preference for organizations serving DeKalb and Sycamore.

Apply between November 1 and December 15 annually.
