Conejo Valley Waves: Step Forward Day 2026
For over 30 years, Step Forward Day has brought together community members from all five of Pepperdine's schools to embody Pepperdine's mission through community service projects across the country. We invite you to open your heart and roll up your sleeves for a day of community service with your regional network!
Led by your Conejo Valley Waves Chapter Leaders, alumni, parents, and friends are invited to serve at Manna Food Bank, which has provided food assistance to neighbors in need for more than 40 years. Waves will assist with several tasks, including sorting donations, preparing emergency food bags, and restocking and cleaning the pantry. Rep the Pepp in your blue and orange, and jump into service! *Please note that a separate waiver and registration must be completed to confirm your attendance with the food bank.
Location: Manna Conejo Valley Food Bank • 95 N Oakview Dr, Thousand Oaks, CA 91362
Age Requirements: This project is family friendly, but children must be supervised at all times.
Support the Waves of Service Fund: You are invited to give a gift during the registration process which will go directly to the Pepperdine Waves of Service Fund and will equip our alumni and community members with the tools to be changemakers in their communities.
Please submit accommodation requests to alumni@pepperdine.edu at the time of registration. Advance notice is requested to secure accommodations.
Your Conejo Valley Waves regional network leaders are Lindsay Anastasio ('23), James Hogan (MA '21), Lorena Hernandez (MS '21), and Rebecca Roldan (MA '17, '20).
