Puppies. Motorcycles. Housing … and teeth. This may be the weirdest combo of topics to ever appear in one place, but here it is.
More importantly, we promise you that each one offers purpose, and another way you can help better our community.
Saturday, April 22, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

For the sixth straight year, Cary Family Dental will offer free fillings, extractions or cleanings to adults, on a first-come basis. The event is through Dentistry From The Heart, a worldwide nonprofit dedicated to providing free dental care to those in need.

The Carying Place teaches homeless, working families with children the life skills they need to attain independent living, while providing these families with short-term housing and support services.

Saturday, April 29, 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Starts at Ray Price Harley-Davidson, Raleigh
What’s a poker run, you ask? At this event, each rider draws a playing card at each stop, and the rider with the highest poker hand at the last stop wins! And you don’t even have to know how to play poker.
The real beauty of the run is that it supports the work of Cary-based nonprofit Life Experiences, which offers adults with disabilities the chance to choose their work and the self-esteem of earning a wage. Ride in the poker run, or sponsor it, and you’re helping!
Saturday, April 29, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
