Pronto! Offers Free Meals for All School Children
by Charlottesville29
For some, no school means no lunch. Pronto!, the fresh pasta restaurant on The Corner, is offering free meals for all school-aged children. This is an extraordinary gesture at a time when COVID-19 is devastating restaurants’ revenues. A statement from Pronto! co-owner Daniel Kaufman:
Due to the local school closures, as well as our massive slowdown in business, we have decided to offer a free meal to any school-aged child needing one until further notice. We have food, they need food, it’s a no-brainer. Come on in anytime, no questions asked. Please note our hours may vary from those posted. Feel free to call ahead to ensure we are open. 434-202-7638.
