Now Through November 26

At The Greensboro Center for Pediatric Dentistry, we believe in the power of community, and this holiday season, we're excited to partner with Greensboro Urban Ministry for a special canned food drive to support those in need. From today through November 26, we are collecting canned goods and non-perishable food items to help stock the shelves of this incredible local organization.

Why Your Donations Matter
Greensboro Urban Ministry has been serving the community for over 50 years, providing food, shelter, and support to individuals and families experiencing hunger and homelessness. Your contributions directly benefit those in need, helping to provide nutritious meals during the holiday season and beyond. Every can, every item donated makes a difference.

How You Can Help
It's easy to get involved:

1. Bring a donation – We’ve set up a donation box right in our lobby, so feel free to drop off your canned goods during your next visit or when we are open (Mon-Thursday 8-5)
2. What to donate – We’re collecting canned vegetables, canned meats, soups, canned fruit, and other non-perishable food items. Please check expiration dates and donate only items that are still good to use. (Please no glass)

If you're not scheduled for an appointment soon, don’t worry! You can stop by during our regular office hours to drop off your donations.

A Big Thank You!
We are so grateful to our patients and community for helping make this food drive a success. Your generosity helps us provide hope and nourishment to those in need, making a real difference in their lives.

We’ll be accepting donations through November 26, so there’s plenty of time to pitch in. Thank you in advance for your kindness and support!

Together, we can make this season a little brighter for those who need it most.

Location: 5408 W Friendly Avenue – Donation box in the lobby
Dates: Now through November 26

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you—and your donations—soon!

It's almost Halloween! Please invite your child to dress up with us if they have an appointment on Monday, Oct. 28 through Thursday, Oct. 31. Our team will be dressed up each day. If your child dresses up, they can put their name in the drawing for a $50 Amazon gift cards! (Gift card winners will be announced after Halloween.)

Get rewarded! Bring your Halloween candy to our office on Monday, November 4th through Wednesday, November 6th between 8:30 am and 4:00 pm.

We will weigh your candy on our scale at the front desk. Your child will receive $1 for every pound of candy they bring to us! (Maximum of $5.) 

The end of the year is approaching fast. Have you made the most of your child’s dental benefits this year? If an unused balance remains, there’s still time to use it before you lose it!

From cleanings to fillings, or even getting started on more complicated dental work, we can help you maximize your benefits.

Don’t wait until it’s too late—call us today at (336) 292-0411 to schedule an appointment before the holidays. To find out more about the pediatric dental services we offer, please CLICK HERE.
