Erin McGeoy is the founder and CEO of Last Call For Food. Last Call For Food is a platform that focuses on reducing food insecurity and food waste on college campuses, and recently, due to the pandemic, throughout communities.

Despite receiving scholarships, financial aid, and working throughout college, Erin struggled to finance her basic needs.

She developed many innovative ways to access more affordable food while in college; she lived a “freegan” lifestyle, subscribing to as many university listservs as possible and planning her week around events that offered free food. She was also a frequent shopper at her university’s food pantry and would double up on post-workout protein bars as meal replacements.

After she created a Facebook group called Free Food in Foggy Bottom to share her strategies with others, Erin realized that her situation was not unique. The group rapidly grew to 500 users while reports on hunger among college students were starting to appear in the media. She saw the needed and created Last Call to give students the support and food security she wished she had.
