Education, children's creativity, and mutual cooperation are essential elements of human resource development. In Dolok Nauli Village, several challenges were identified, including limited public awareness of the importance of education, inadequate opportunities for children's creativity development, and the need to strengthen community participation in maintaining environmental cleanliness. This community service program aimed to improve educational awareness, foster children's creativity, and strengthen the values of mutual cooperation through educational socialization, a coloring and painting festival, and community clean-up activities. A descriptive qualitative method was employed using observation, interviews, documentation, and direct participation. The results showed increased parental awareness of education, improved children's creativity and self-confidence, and stronger community participation in maintaining a clean environment and promoting cooperation. Overall, the program contributed positively to education, children's development, and community empowerment in Dolok Nauli Village.
