Abstract

The level of financial literacy in Indonesia is still low (<50%). Financial literacy is closely related to financial planning. Financial planning is not only for those who have financial difficulties, but also for those who have excess finances so that they can be planned optimally. The purpose of this community service is to increase literacy and understanding of family financial planning, so that the community, especially PKK women in Gedongboyo Untung Village can manage their family finances well. The implementation method applied is socialization and financial literacy education counseling regarding family financial planning as well as training in making doormats from used cloth. The result of this program is an increase in literacy understanding of family financial planning and its practice. In addition, it also improves the skills of participants in utilizing used cloth in the form of goods that can be used and have sale value.

Abstract

The majority of Ngujungrejo residents earn their livelihoods through farming, primarily producing rice and various types of fish. They typically sell the fish fresh at nearby markets. However, they encounter challenges during periods of abundant harvests, as oversupply leads to price drops and the risk of fish spoilage, especially tilapia. Additionally, there has been a rise in the number of job seekers over the past three years. The goal of this initiative is to enhance residents' entrepreneurial skills and understanding while improving their ability to process harvests into higher-value products. Methods employed include surveys, entrepreneurship workshops, training sessions on producing tilapia fish crackers, and evaluation. The outcome of this effort has been a 60% increase in knowledge and understanding of entrepreneurship and a 75% improvement in skills related to tilapia fish production. This growth is anticipated to empower participants to establish home-based industries, consequently reducing the number of job seekers in the area.
