Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) play strategic roles in spiritual guidance and economic empowerment. However, many face obstacles in financial management, particularly in preparing accountable and transparent budgets. This community service program aimed to improve the budget planning capacity of business unit managers at Al-Amanah Junwangi Modern Islamic Boarding School. The intervention employed a five-stage participatory approach: (1) initial assessment, (2) accountability-based budget planning training, (3) technical assistance in preparing Activity and Budget Plans, (4) digital financial recording system implementation, and (5) monitoring and evaluation. Sixteen participants from eight business units participated in this program conducted in August 2025. Evaluation used observation, interviews, and pre-post test comparisons. Results showed significant improvements in participants’ understanding and skills (mean score increased from 70.8 to 92.8, p<0.001). The pesantren successfully developed budget plan documents, implemented application-based recording systems, and strengthened financial transparency principles. The program produced a practical budget preparation guide and enhanced human resource capacity in pesantren financial management. This assistance contributed to strengthening the pesantren financial system toward modern, accountable, and sustainable governance, demonstrating the effectiveness of participatory digital interventions in Islamic educational institutions.Downloads
