National Step Forward Day with Alumni

Pepperdine Community Service Projects | Nationwide

Each year, hundreds of alumni across the nation serve with their local regions at nonprofit organizations on Step Forward Day. Established in 1988 by two Seaver College students, Step Forward Day now involves alumni, parents, faculty, and staff from all five of Pepperdine's schools. 

Every September, we invite you to roll up your sleeves for a day of community service with your regional network of Waves!
