Abstract

This community service program aims to enhance public literacy and skills in managing household finances through the implementation of effective financial record-keeping practices. A common problem many households face is the inability to systematically manage cash flow, difficulty tracking expenses, and a lack of planning to achieve both short-term and long-term financial goals. This often leads to financial stress and reliance on debt. The selection of this topic is based on the urgency of equipping the public with practical basic personal accounting skills, given the importance of financial stability as the foundation of family well-being.The method of implementing this service focuses on interactive education and direct workshops, specifically designed to facilitate understanding of basic concepts in recording income and expenses, creating realistic budgets, and identifying priority spending categories. The material is delivered using easy-to-understand, straightforward language relevant to daily experiences. The workshops also include simulations of financial record-keeping practices using simple tools, such as manual cash books or free mobile applications, to ensure that the skills taught can be directly applied. The results of the service show a significant improvement in participants' understanding of the importance of financial record-keeping, as well as positive changes in their daily money management behavior. Many participants reported feeling "Stress-Free in Managing Monthly Money" after applying the methods taught, with the ability to identify budget leaks and plan fund allocation more carefully. A brief conclusion from this service is that personal accounting literacy is a crucial foundation for household well-being, and targeted education can empower communities to achieve financial stability and realize their financial goals more effectively Keywords: Household Financial Literacy, Financial Record-Keeping, Radio Education

Abstract

ABSTRACT Koto Masjid Village is a village in Koto Kampar District XIII, with a fairly busy community. One important aspect of maintaining public health is instilling clean and healthy lifestyle habits from an early age in elementary school-aged children. In response to this situation, the author initiated the "Personal Hygiene Counseling as an Effort to Prevent Infectious Diseases in Elementary School Children in Koto Masjid Village" work program to increase awareness and encourage elementary school students to practice personal hygiene. This activity was implemented through an interactive counseling method that directly involved students. The main focus of the material covered crucial steps in maintaining personal hygiene, from proper handwashing with soap and coughing and sneezing etiquette to prevent the spread of germs, the importance of using personal eating utensils and toiletries (not sharing), to education about nail and skin hygiene. This education is crucial for providing a proper understanding of the prevention of infectious diseases that frequently occur in the school environment. As a means of ongoing education, the author also created and displayed guide posters at strategic points around the school. The poster provides a concise visualization of handwashing procedures, coughing and sneezing etiquette, personal hygiene, and nail and skin care. The expected outcome is increased health literacy and behavioral changes among students in Koto Masjid Village, resulting in a healthier school environment responsive to preventing disease transmission at the individual level.
