Angela Prattis, a Pennsylvania lunch lady has been fined $600 per day for handing out food to needy children. Officials are claiming that the generous lunch lady did not obtain an ordinance variance which Chester township officials maintain she needs to conduct such charitable activities.
According to The Blaze, The special permit, which Prattis failed to obtain, carries a $1,000 price tag since the meals are donated through education department funds under the guidance of the Archdiocese Philadelphia.
Reports indicate that Prattis began handing out meals to needy children after she moved to the Trainer, Pennsylvania area several years ago.
The lunch lady first started distributing meals to underprivileged children at the Church of the Overcomer. She then started utilizing the gazebo on her own property to feed approximately 60 needy area children during the summer months when schools that often provide needy kids with much-appreciated breakfasts and lunches are closed.
"I'm not stopping. These kids are hungry. I'm not tearing down the community. I'm keeping the children out of harm's way," Prattis told the Daily Times. "Last Friday, I had 20 children walk to my house in the pouring rain for lunch, and at 2 pm they came back for a snack. Tell me this program is not needed."
