4-C Community Coordinated Child Care has been selected as the recipient of the 2025 Websites for Good by Green Closet Creative grant, an in-kind donation valued at up to $10,000 in professional website development services. This annual initiative is a collaboration between Green Closet Creative and the DeKalb County Nonprofit Partnership (DCNP) and provides a local nonprofit with a modern, user-friendly website to better connect with families, providers, donors, and the broader community.

4-C Community Coordinated Child Care is a nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening families and early childhood education by improving access to quality, affordable child care. Through child care financial assistance, resource and referral services, professional development for providers, and family support programs, 4-C serves as a vital resource for children and caregivers throughout the region.

“4-C’s work directly impacts families at one of the most important stages of life,” said Darby Ward Dwyer, co-founder of Green Closet Creative. “We’re honored to help elevate their mission through a digital platform that makes their services more accessible and clearly communicates the impact they have on children, parents, and providers across our community.”

This annual grant opportunity is made possible by Green Closet Creative, an award-winning marketing agency based in Sycamore, IL, in partnership with DCNP, a program of the DeKalb County Community Foundation that strengthens nonprofits through capacity-building initiatives.

“Our partnership with DCNP allows us to extend our support beyond traditional marketing services,” said Ellie Peterson, co-founder of Green Closet Creative. “Together, we’re able to help organizations like 4-C build tools that support their long-term sustainability and better serve the families who rely on them every day.”

As a result of this project, 4-C Community Coordinated Child Care will receive a modern, functional website designed to help families and providers easily access information about child care assistance, referrals, training opportunities, and ways to engage with and support the organization’s mission.

“The DeKalb County Nonprofit Partnership exists to strengthen nonprofits by connecting them with meaningful community partnerships,” said Ben Bingle, Director of the DeKalb County Nonprofit Partnership. “This collaboration with Green Closet Creative is a great example of how local expertise can be leveraged to support organizations like 4-C and expand their impact across DeKalb County.”
