Abstract
Flood disasters are among the most frequent natural hazards in Indonesia, causing multidimensional impacts on affected communities, including social, economic, and psychological disruptions. This community engagement activity aims to deliver humanitarian aid to flood victims while strengthening social solidarity and humanitarian awareness within both academic and community settings. The implementation methods include needs assessment, donation fundraising, aid packaging, direct distribution to affected areas, and social interaction through a humanistic approach. The assistance provided consists of basic necessities such as food supplies, proper clothing, and hygiene kits. The results indicate that the distribution of aid significantly alleviates the burden of flood victims in meeting their essential needs while also providing meaningful moral support. Furthermore, this activity enhances the relationship between universities and the community and serves as a contextual learning platform for students to develop empathy and humanitarian values. Therefore, this community service initiative not only functions as an emergency response but also represents a strategic effort to foster sustainable social awareness and solidarity.
Keywords: Humanitarian Aid, Flood Disaster, Social Solidarity, Community Engagement.
