Knowledge about vaccination is rarely obtained at every level of school, this causes students' knowledge about vaccination, especially COVID-19, to be lacking. This requires attention and the community service program that is carried out is an information delivery program and is useful for increasing knowledge about vaccination, especially COVID-19. The program carried out is to increase knowledge about vaccination for students at the Bina Putra Bantul Orphanage, Yogyakarta.

Participants who took part in this program were 37 students. This extension program was concluded to be able to increase knowledge about vaccination in groups of students at the SMK level.
