<![CDATA[This Community Service (PkM) activity aims to increase knowledge, improve household expenditure efficiency, and provide practical skills to residents of Kelurahan Wek II, Kecamatan Batangtoru, South Tapanuli Regency, through training on self-produced dishwashing soap.

The execution method used a systematic participatory approach, encompassing preparation and coordination, technical material dissemination, interactive demonstrations, independent practice, and program effectiveness evaluation.

In addition to positively impacting household budget efficiency, this activity was proven to foster public entrepreneurial interest in using these new skills as a foundation for launching home industries in the local area.]]>
