ABSTRACT
The difficulty of breaking the chain of poverty in Indonesia is due to the lack of comprehensive handling by
the government. Poor people or underprivileged communities are people whose basic rights are not fulfilled.
There are still underprivileged communities in Gegempalan village, Cikoneng sub-district, Ciamis district by
74%, this is a very high number. The high level of the underprivileged community is caused by the majority
of the community being home industry workers or small and medium industries and farm workers whose
income is uncertain. The service was carried out to the community of the Muhara block, the hamlet of the
Gegempalan village with the non-assessment method with the first stage of deliberation and FGD, the second
stage of socialization and training and the third stage of mentoring. PKM activities can increase the income
of underprivileged communities with the added economic value generated from these activities. However, the
limited market access for productive business groups should be re-assisted so that the community has
sustainable income that can change the condition of the community.
