Local food pantries have been handing out what they have as fast as it comes in. That’s why Allen Madding, director of Feed the Hungry Forsyth, is thankful so many businesses have stepped up to take part in the holiday canned good drive. The nonprofit, which formed about two years ago, supports local agencies that help the hungry.
