That's good it's a free permit. Would hate the idea of them being charged for a permit to help feed the homeless. I do understand why they want organizers to get a permit though.

This is a move in the right direction though.

Also, it would be nice if the state actually helped in the funding and feeding if the homeless as well.
 
This new rule requiring permits for groups feeding the homeless in Shawnee, Oklahoma seems necessary to maintain order, but it's crucial to ensure it doesn't hinder or discourage efforts to help those in need.
