This study analyzes contributions of students from State Islamic University of North Sumatra through KKN in Aek Gambir Village, focusing on education, social life, economy, environment, and religious experience. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected via observation, interviews, and documentation. Results show, Quran training and Children's Islamic Festival improved children's religious literacy, social skills, and confidence; KKN strengthened togetherness, solidarity, and tolerance through religious moderation; digitalizing MSMEs using Google Maps expanded market access, improved digital literacy, and supported local growth; the program raised awareness of cleanliness and public space preservation; and moderation values fostered an inclusive, tolerant, and harmonious community. KKN is a strategic instrument for sustainable village development. Students are implementers and agents of change bridging academic knowledge with community needs, benefiting both community and students.]]>
