Pepperdine People Podcast

Pepperdine celebrates the 21st annual Step Forward Day on September 12, 2009. What began as a single service project by two students has grown to engage generations of alumni, parents, and friends spanning the globe to live the mission of the University: Freely ye receive; freely give. Alumnus Scott Pitts ('89), one of the student founders, joins Vice Chancellor Sara Jackson, former director of the Pepperdine Volunteer Center, to remember the first day of service in 1989 and discuss why the tradition continues to thrive after two decades.
